fritte Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) Hi everyone. Im very new to this forum but hope you will have some time to help me anyway. Im going to the European Alps this summer for the first time. Particulaly the areas around Chamnonix and Zermatt. I will be climbing in july/august. I would like to know what kind of sleeping bag to bring. I expect to be bivying at around 12000 feet several times during my visit. How cold is it typically at night at this elevation in the Alps? What kind of sleeping bag would you recommend? Thanks in advance Edited March 14, 2006 by fritte Quote
Distel32 Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I have a marmot Col -20F that I got from Figger8 and I've slept outside with it in -35C temps quite a few times and it was warm.....but I have no other advice besides that. Quote
