Mountain Hardwear Switch 5 Sleeping Bag: 5 Degree Synthetic
Worm it up, Sleeping Bag Style...
By Chris Tatsuno
Ranked #300 - 25 to 5 Degree Synthetic Bags
May 26, 2010
A 5 degree sleeping bag may seem a little much for a trip to the desert, but the month of May brings weather of all extremes. My girlfriend came with me on a recent trip to Moab, where she hunkered down for the night in MH's Switch 5 sleeping bag next to me in the TatsVan. The zippers are super smooth, and we had no worries about it unzipping during the night leaving skin exposed. The draft collar is super comfy, and makes for a snug fit without compromising breathing space. It's summer now, so we'll be putting this bag away for the time being, but she can't wait to test the 5 degree warmth factor as the snow begins piling up again!
