RE: [pct-l] sleeping bags

Used a Feather Friends 20 degree (down) bag. 800 fill and Dryloft. Worked
fine, but had lost a lot warmth by the end of the trip. You have to keep the
bag dry no matter what kind of insulation you choose.

	Haven't seen this discussed yet since I've been on the list. What
kind of
	sleeping bags y'all using? Down compresses so much better, but when
it
	gets wet, it takes so dang long to dry out. I'm a life-long Pacific
	Northwet native, so I figure I'll be getting the bag wet. Heck, I
manage
	to get my bag wet by touching the sides of a tent, condensation in
bivy
	sacks, etc. But the man-made insulation is so derned bulky. Advice?
