Marmot Trestles Trails Sleeping Bag: Synthetic


Product Details

During hot summer nights in the woods, you need a sleeping bag that wicks more than you need one that insulates. The Marmot Trestles Trails Sleeping Bag has a synthetic lining that pulls the sweat away from your skin and disperses it to the bags exterior to evaporateand the Trestles Trails does this for you all night long. Plus, you can use this Marmot Sleeping Bag to give new life to an old, worn-out bag or to add a few degrees of warmth to your cold-weather bag. A full-length zipper extends around the foot box, so you can use the Trestles Trails flat like a blanket, too.

Price : $ 88.95

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!
