Re: [Philmont]: Christmas bags?

Aside from price, I recomment the Marmot Arroyo. 30 degree (true 30 degree)
bag. 800 down filled. Packs very small. About 2lbs. Worked fgreat at
philmont this year.

Subject: [Philmont]: Christmas bags?

I really appreciate all the input on my Christmas Tents post. Now I need
few suggestions for my trekkers' parents that are considering Christmas
Sleeping Bags. I have been looking at bags on the net, but I need
recommendations from pholks with Philmont experience.

I've been trying to find a new, 2 lb, 6'6" long, 38" wide, 20 degree,
rectangular (I abhor having my feet bound), $65, sleeping bag that stuffs
down to the size of a softball. I don't think I'll find one.

In reality I'm thinking about suggesting a lightweight 30 degree bag and
adding a fleece liner. I've eliminated "down" bags due to performance when
wet. I'm willing to stand corrected if anyone knows of a reasonably priced
down bag that can keep out the rain.

All suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Please don't hesitate to list
make, model, and price.
