Title: Sleeping Bag
Post by: Elkaholic87 on July 14, 2014, 12:25:39 PM: I'm looking for a down sleeping bag that won't break the bank, yet is light weight in the 15-20 degree range, thoughts?

:yeah: You either have to be willing to spend a little extra or get gear that's a little heavier. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as quality, light, and cheap
