Is that a misprint? I assumed because it is dubbed "15 Degree Down" that the temp rating would be 15F.<br /><br />I tend to be cold, when not moving, due to low heart rate and blood pressure. I currently have a 20F rated (Slumberjack) synthetic fill bag that I froze my rear off in when only 32F. I was very disappointed. I don't want to spend this much and freeze my behind again.<br /><br />I have looked around and for the money/weight ratio, this bag seems promising. The design seems to make sense, and with the minimal weight, I plan to include a closed cell pad (7oz.) with it. All would be lighter than my current bag assuming the combination of the included pad and bag weight of 2lbs. 2oz. is correct.<br /><br />Thanks! question_64778 Wed, 07 Jan 2009 13:20:46 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/ALM0040/ALPS-Mountaineering-Navajo-Sleeping-Bag-20F-Degree-Down.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_62418#question_62418 ALPS Mountaineering Navajo Sleeping Bag: 20F Degree Down<br /><br />What is the compressed size (volume) of this bag? question_62418 Fri, 02 Jan 2009 10:14:00 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/TNF3040/The-North-Face-Hightail-Sleeping-Bag-15-Degree-Down.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_57606#question_57606 The North Face Hightail Sleeping Bag: 15 Degree Down<br /><br />How should I decide if I need a left zipper vs. Right Zipper bag?
