Details
Kelty filled its Foraker 0 Degree Sleeping Bag with 750-fill goose down so you can sleep comfortably in nose-hair-freezing conditions. Welded construction in the hood and foot areas blocks moisture on wet expeditions. Down keeps you comfortable in a wide range of temperatures, which means you can bring the Foraker on warmer treks without passing out, and the down holds its loft over time so you arent stuck buying a new bag every other season. The Kelty Foraker mummy bags full baffle collar and deep, three-dimensional hood insulate, while a two-way locking zipper lets you cool off or lock heat in.

Winter Sleeping Bags Checklist
 |
Insulation Type? For winter
camping, nothing is better than high-quality goose down. It's warmer
and less bulky. Yes, synthetic bags are ok (and less expensive),
but for wintner camping...goose down rules. |
|
Temperature Rating? Get
a bag rated to -40 degrees. Remember, just because a bag is rated
to -40, doesn't mean it will keep you warm at that temperature. Always
be safe and "add 10 to 20" degrees onto the temperature rating of
a sleeping bag. |
|
Don't Forget the Sleeping Pad! A
winter sleeping bag is useless without a thick sleeping
pad. So,
if you don't already have a sleeping pad designed for winter, be
sure to get one. Remember, sleeping pads are designed for BOTH warmth
and comfort! |

Don't Jerry-Rig a Three Season Bag
for Winter Use. It's not really possible to "jerry rig"
a three season bag to make it suitable for winter use. Many good
three-season bags keep you warmer when you sleep without clothing.
About the best you can do to "winterize" a three-season bag is
to insert a sleeping bag liner. But it's still a sorry substitute
for a quality four-season bag. |
