I headed to bed a little early on this night at about 9 pm. The Second Night, the temperature was supposed to be 5 degrees warmer, and the bag was rated to a 40-degree temperature rating. It reminded me of a door with a gap between the door and the frame. Every place light was coming through there was a draft. I moved my hand down the inside the sleeping bag. I opened my eyes while I was still encapsulated inside the Cosmic Down, and I could see the light coming in like a zebra pattern for an inch each side of the thread where the sleeping bag had been sewn. I was still cold and would have to continually turn so the coldest part would be pressed against the Big Agnes mat I was using.īy the time the sun had pierced the canopy of trees, I was entirely inside the sleeping bag and shivering. Partway through the night, I was forced to put on a second layer of clothes. The temperature on the first night reached a low of 38 degrees. I shrugged and said, “why not?”įirst night. I have never sold their products or owned one. I have seen the brand around and know people who love it. I was looking for something that I could use for high alpine backpacking compressible, lightweight, and around 40 degrees. I decided to take a risk and try to get a Lafumaesque style sleeping bag. All these things combined left me with two weeks to go until the Boatsmith Whitewater festival, and I didn’ have a sleeping bag. That sleeping bag suffered a tragic accident involving a velociraptor mix, and my two-person Mountain Hardwear Lamina was in my Jeep when it was stolen.
I bought another down sleeping bag from Outdoor Vitals. When my ex-wife moved out, it mysteriously disappeared along with my five-year-olds wetsuit and favorite stuffed dog, Coco. It was a 40-degree bag that was lightweight, compressible, and kept me warm on 30 degree nights. I do not know what happened to it, but it was by far the best sleeping bag I have ever owned. Once upon a time, I had a mountain hardware phantom.
