Anyone do any backpacking on here?(sleeping bags)

Recommended Posts

Rei.com has one hell of a sale going on and I'm planning on getting a kit together only problem is Sleeping bags, I'm about as clueless as clueless could be and need some help picking one out.

So anyway, the thought is 1, quality of the bag 2, the size of it. because it's for backpacking I need it as small as possible without having to worry about freezing my nuts off. with that being said though most of my camping will happen in the summer time and temp will not be that big of a deal.

so here are my choices

1, http://www.rei.com/product/812622/alps-mountaineering-desert-pine-20-sleeping-bag-regular-special-buy

it seems like the winner, it's one of the smaller ones, it's cheaper and seems to have pretty good temp stats, but it's also a bit heavier

2, http://www.rei.com/product/780521/rei-zephyr-20-sleeping-bag-long-09-special-buy

the best all around bag, a good bit more expensive but it beats all other bags in every category

3, http://www.rei.com/product/815023/big-agnes-silver-creek-30-sleeping-bag-regular-special-buy

it's the Cheapest, the lower temp limit isn't as good and it packs bigger

Dependsd on when you are BPing. I use a 20 degree rated and never have a problem winter or summer. I wouldnt go lower than that unless you plan on doing alot of winter backpacking. Get you one that can fit in a compression bag and can be compressed small.

I also use a 20 degree bag. I hike a lot in the Smokies and temps can fall pretty quick up there.

    • In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
    • The nice thing about the timing of Bryce's contract at least is that it's going to match up with the 2027 Draft Class. No excuses, he either becomes Rams 2nd half Bryce year long, or we draft his replacement.  Nothing wrong with carrying Bryce on his 5th year expiring and a 1st round rookie waiting in the wings. Let the rookie sit until the trade deadline, deal Bryce to a needy team at the time, profit. 
    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.
