sleeping

So I've finally had enough of my old sleeping bag and I'm looking to replace it. The only thing making this difficult is finding one that will fit well. I'm 6'3. I obviously need something that I can use all year. I was thinking maybe something with a removable liner and maybe a bivy. Also...

I'm looking for a 0 degree bag that's light. (less than 5 pounds) Anyone have a favorite style/brand they have had particular luck with?

I've been looking into getting a pack and sleeping bag. i'm pretty into surplus stuff, simply because it always seems to be super durable and i'm somewhat rough on backpacks but i don't know shit about sleeping bags. I'd be looking for a bag i could live out of in europe as well(hoping to head...

The fine liberal fascists of San Fran have decided that restin' your bones on the sidewalk is a criminal act. If you look homeless, your gonna be fined. Be warned. Fuck witted sons of bitches :club: Story here: Police State: "Lefty" San Francisco Can Throw People in Jail For Sitting on a...

It's 9:22 am. Just took a sleeping pill and about to finish my last beer. That means its time to get out the guitar. I play awesome on beer and pills. At least to me it sounds awesome. I'm also pretty sure it enables me to speak other languages.

Hi everybody! Im at the moment in Paris, and in a couple of days I'm planing to go to amsterdam (and possibly Rotterdam on the way). As I've brought a sleeping bag I'm thinking of just sleeping outside somewhere. Does anybody have any experience of sleeping outdoors in those cities? Best...

I just finished patching my pad with all the patches left in the kit, and it still goes flat. Time for a new one. I sleep well on my side, so I naturally stay warmer. Can sleep on just about anything. I like the comfort and warmth of my thermarest, but its heavy and goes flat. It's all ive...

this is kind of a poll, I looked for a poll making function but didn`t see it. I just had a really terrible nights sleep in some bushes in Cusco, Peru. I got into town really late and people told me I`d get jumped and to stay off the streets. Nothing happened, but I couldn`t really sleep...

I saw an ad in the paper here in BC, Can. today for a consingment store selling off Asolo Sleeping bags, Reg. $98 for $48. Unfortuneately they provide no more information and the store is like two hours from me so I haven't made the trip to check them out yet, but has anybody had any...

Dear people, Next year, in february or march, I'm going to the states for three months (90 days is all I get). What I'd really like to do is of course make a trip, but especially camping in the nature. I'm going with a friend of mine and we'd like to bring a tent. We'd like to make hiking...

Has anyone tried this before? I have a 0 degree bag that is a bit too big and heavy to be carrying around constantly, and I doubt I'll be voluntarily going to any place where it gets that cold. I want to cut and sew it a bit to make it smaller and lighter. I know that will greatly compromise...

I prefer canvas. I have an old 1944 US Army sleeping bag. It's got an outside waterproof bag and a detachable lining. Dries pretty fast if it gets wet. Pretty warm as well. It is a tint tad bit heavier than my modern polyester one. What do you girls and guys prefer?

So, I've never had a good sleeping bag. They've always come from thrift shops and aren't particularly warm, don't have particularly, what you would call functional zippers and are generally all around crap. I am thinking about changing this, but have a couple questions about those 80-100 dollar...

im going to be bunking trains, and probably hitchin through france. and its fucking -2 in southern england any ideas for warm sleeping places, all i got is 2 sleeping bags and a shit load of clothes. please post soon, im leaving in a few hours.

ive never tried this yet..cuz i dont have a hammock..but i was thinking about how a few months ago me and my friend got into a ..."semi" abandoned building..it was like under renovation or something and i ran up the wall and got my friend to boost me into the rafters where one of the cieling...

So everywhere i travel to, i always just throw my shit on the ground and sleep in the woods. Never really worried or bothered by wildlife. So early one morning inside of Portlands Lake yd, i was roling a cigarette on my pack. And to my surprise a fucking 6 foot rattle snake struck at me 3...

my favorite last few places urban camping are: on boats in seaside towns, or even stored on boat trailer/dealership in cardboard dumpsters (way warm, been lucky so far but try not to do so on sunday nites) on top of high ass water tower-sick view in boxcar even if not riding most trainyard...

this is going to sound dumb, but i don't know how to carry my sleeping bag around. it won't fit in my pack. how do i attach it?
