Awesome 3-Season Bag

Having recently purchased the Lafuma 1000, I must say that it is the best sleeping bag I have ever owned. Lightweight and small in size when rolled, it fits nicely into my North Face Terra 60 storage sack with room even for a small pillow. I was worried at first that it might be a little too hot for warmer days, but this past weekend at Red River Gorge it was 65 degrees at night and the bag knocked off the chill but didnt suffocate me in heat.
For a mummy bag it's very roomy, and although it says the length is 6'6", mine measures all the way to 7'5" without any weight increase! The extra room is nice, especially for a guy like myself who sleeps on his stomach and wraps his arms underneath his head (the extra room allows my arms to remain covered under the hood).
Sleeping by a creek usually means a damp morning, and although the bag sucked up some mositure, it retained its warmth and didn't have me feeling like I was sleeping in a wet roll of paper towels. I would definitely recommend the Lafuma 1000 to anyone who needs a new 3-season bag.
