Sierra Designs Solar Flare 30 Sleeping Bag: 30 Degree Down - Women's


Product Details

Sierra Designs makes the 30-degree Solar Flare 30 Sleeping Bag with 600 fill-power down and a womens-specific shape, for optimal comfort and packability. Shorter length means that the Solar Flare wont weigh down your pack or make you shiver due to empty space inside. Narrower shoulders and wider hips conform to feminine body shape better than standard trapezoidal mens bags, and a tricot-lined footbox keeps feet toasty warm from the moment you slide em in.

Price : $ 248.95

Lightweight Sleeping Bags Checklist

Sure It's Warm Enough? Lightweight bags are meant for use in weather between 30-50 degrees. But, remember, it's always prudent to add on at least 10 degrees to the bags rating. Thus, a bag rated to 40 degrees might only keep you warm in 50 degree weather.
Down or Synthetic? Each have their advantages. Down is less bulky and weighs a few ounces less. Synthetic costs less (usually) and is easier to dry - you can just toss it in the dryer.
Don't Forget the Sleeping Pad! A sleeping bag is useless without a sleeping pad. So, if you don't already have a sleeping pad, get one. For lightweight sleeping bags (thus used in warm weather), you don't need a super thick or winter-style one.
Ideal Uses for a Lightweight Bag. Where you know...for sure...that the temperature will stay at least 10-15 degrees above the sleeping bags rating. And, where every ounce and cubic inch of space is at a premium. Lightweight bags are often used by climbers and bike campers/travelers. For backpacking in the mountains, a lightweight bag is NOT recommended!
