Lightweight Sleeping

Well I do feel the cold but ultimately I've got to think about the weight to warmth ratio. I've chosen the Raidlight Combi sleeping bag, its down filled and can convert from a bag into a jacket for extra warmth before bed. Billed as 580g, it actually comes in closer to 650g. It packs away quite nicely but the stuff sac is almost round meaning that I will have to acquire a more rectangle shaped sac for the adventure so it can easily attach to my WAA ruck sac. (I've borrowed one from a friend).

The sleeping bag is suited to 5 degrees, I have considered a silk liner and a thermarest but this all adds weight so I'm thinking of sticking with just the bag and lumping the stones !!!
