Marmot Arete Sleeping Bag: 40 Degree Down
perfect summer sleeper

Ranked #203 - 55 to 30 Degree Down Bags
November 27, 2010
With 800 fill goose down, this seems to be the perfect summer bag. I also ordered the Sea to Summit EVent compression Dry sack (small) and it fits perfectly. It compresses to approximately the size of a Nalgene bottle (slightly larger diameter). I am now able to stuff this bag and a full size thermarest mat in the sleeping bag compartment of my Deuter Aircontact 65+10 backpack. This bag doesn't dissapoint!

Hi Chuck - did you use the 10 liter EVent compression sack or the 6 liter? Thanks!
