WARNING: KEEP ALL FLAME AND HEAT SOURCES AWAY FROM THIS SLEEPING BAG
Do not use stoves, candles, matches, heaters, or open flames of any kind in or near a sleeping bag.
This sleeping bag is made of flame-resistant fabric. It is not fireproof. The fabric will burn if left in continuous contact with
a flame source.
A WORD ON TEMPERATURE RATINGS
There are no North American standardized temperature testing criteria for sleeping bags. Most manufacturers agree that
temperature ratings are merely a starting point for the discussion of comfort.
Temperature ratings are not absolutes; there are many factors contributing to how warm a person sleeps. Be realistic
with your expectations and err on the side of caution regarding temperature ratings.
Insulation - Synthetic and down insulations are great, but they are only designed to trap warm air from your body and
slow the movement of air. It is this trapped air that insulates you and helps keep you warm. It is important to remember
that sleeping bags are not heaters; if you are cold when you get into a sleeping bag, chances are you will remain that way.
Follow the tips provided to improve your chances of a warm night’s sleep.
Metabolism - Consider age, fitness level, body size, warm or cold sleeper, male or female (females generally are colder
sleepers). Also consider your physical condition upon retiring - if you are dead tired and out of energy you are much more
likely to be cold during the night.
Equipment - Temperature ratings assume the use of a proper sleeping pad (this insulates below you), appropriate tent
for the season and outside conditions, and proper use of the sleeping bag. Discuss this equipment with your outdoor
retailer. If you are a cold sleeper consider buying a sleeping bag that is warmer and form fitting to your body.
*With all these variables the perception of warmth and comfort can vary. Discuss these factors with your local outdoor
retailer when choosing the best sleeping bag for your needs.
USING YOUR SLEEPING BAG ON A TRIP
Selecting your gear - Your sleeping bag, sleeping pad, and tent need to match the OUTSIDE CONDITIONS you will
encounter. For example, if you are 3 season camping (includes spring and fall) the insulating capability of your sleeping
pad and your tent need to be 3 season. Consider all of this as part of your sleep system to battle the outside weather.
If you are a cold sleeper, or might encounter surprise cold temperatures, consider a warmer, fitted sleeping bag, a
sleeping bag liner, overbag, and/or appropriate sleepwear to help augment the temperature rating.
*Humidity – everyone knows it feels colder when the air is humid vs dry. Keep this in mind when choosing a sleeping bag.
Using your sleeping bag - Unpack your sleeping bag as early as possible to allow the insulation to loft. It is this lofted
insulation that will trap warmth from your body and in turn insulate you from the cold.
If your sleeping bag has a hood then it must be used correctly for maximum warmth. Also the draw cord around the
neck/ shoulders needs to be snug to minimize the loss of heat through the top of the sleeping bag.
*You cannot rely on the temperature ratings if 2 sleeping bags have been zipped together.
Clothing - Keep your sleeping bag clean by using designated sleepwear. Cotton is ok for warm weather, but use only
synthetic or merino wool underwear and socks in cooler temperatures. Use a fleece or wool cap as necessary - you can
lose a lot of heat through your head. Do not sleep in clothes you wear when cooking and eating, this could attract bears.
Condensation - It is common for sleeping bags to have some condensation on them in the morning. This is virtually
unavoidable, and nothing to worry about. The outer fabric is treated with a light water-repellent coating that will help
keep the sleeping bag dry. It’s ok to air out your bag during the day to dry and refresh it. Try to avoid unnecessary and
prolonged exposure to UV rays.
