barjor Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 So I am looking for a new winter sleeping bag and is wondering what the coldest it ever been at Camp Muir is. Does anyone know where to find that info? Quote
thelawgoddess Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 that's not going to be the sole basis for your new purchase, is it? Quote
barjor Posted August 26, 2005 Author Posted August 26, 2005 (edited) Nah just trying to figure out a ball park rating for winter use in the cascades. Â As always color is the most important feature on my new bag. Have to match my tired red eyes and blue frozen lips. Edited August 26, 2005 by barjor Quote
Couloir Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 ...what the coldest it ever been at Camp Muir is. As what TLG said, I wouldn't use this as your only criteria, but here is a good place for what you're looking for. Quote

Kraken Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 if you want extreme for all weather, I'd go with like a -15 or something. Check out Marmot's sleeping bags. I have a zero that I use when i'm there in the winter and I just bought a Marmot Cwm, a -40 bag for Denali this upcoming spring. Quote
barjor Posted August 29, 2005 Author Posted August 29, 2005 Have you ever felt that 0 wasn't enough on the cascade volcanos? Is there a problem to keep a down bag dry in a bivy sack? Quote
