Mountain Hardwear Lamina 20 Sleeping Bag: 20 Degree Synthetic

Item #MHW1497 | 10 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good Choice

By Ranked #489 - 25 to 5 Degree Synthetic Bags December 22, 2008

I really like this bag. The first time I crawled in it, I rolled over on my stomach and bent my knee off to the side comfortably. I guess it really just depends whether or not you're a side sleeper, but I tend to move around a lot and I was able to do so and not feel too constricted. (5'11, 190). I'm glad it has the draft tube and the neck guard, I think they'll make a difference when it counts.
I used it up on the saddle of Telescope peak in Death Valley where it probably got down to the 30's with the wind and woke up warm in the morning. The stuff sack that comes with it is pretty tiny, and it took me a bit of time to roll it up every morning, so I ended up investing in a bigger stuff sack. It's definitely a bag worth looking into.
