Sleeping bag weight
zwickeyman:
I have an older Marmot Down 30 degree bag. Weighs 1# 11oz. I use this bag for everything from 60's into single digits. Different layers on depending on temp drop
starbailey:
I HAVE 2 Feathered Friends bags. One 20 degree bag (2-3 lbs) for most of my backpacking/hunting and one -20 bag (4-5 lbs) for when things are expected to be VERY cold.
92xj:
I run a 26oz 20degree quilt
For cold or wet weather, I run a 7oz custom bivy.
Pad is 16oz r4.2
For cold/wet I run that combo and stay very comfortable with a merino base layer bottom and shirt at 15 degrees. Total setup is 3lbs 5 oz with the sacks included.
Summer camping, I ditch the bivy and run a cuben ground sheet at 3 oz. Though I always keep the bivy in my pack just incase weather rolls in or it gets colder than expected. At only 7 oz its worth carrying it for me.
I went through a few different setups before landing on this and it works perfect for me and all my hunting situations.
Jason:
I use a Enlightened Equipment Convert 10 degree 850 fill and it weighs 30oz
Stein:
I have two, a light quilt and a heavy winter GoreTex down bag. I haven't weighted either, the former weighs next to nothing and the latter I would carry even if it weighed 20 pounds.
