Hello All,
I've been a member here for a few years now. In the past, I've asked for advice on what you believed to be excellent, budget-friendly backpacking items in the following categories: tent, sleeping bag, backpack, and sleeping pad. Using this community's advice, I purchased the following: MSR Elixir 3p (tent), Sea to Summit Trek TK I Long (sleeping bag), Nemo Tensor Insulated 25L (sleeping pad), and Osprey Aether 70L (backpack). These items have been absolutely incredible after a year's worth of use and if I had to do it all again, I wouldn't change a thing.
My girlfriend is now getting in to backpacking. She is excited to share these adventures with me and I can't wait. So, on to another round of advice from this great community who has helped me out in the past by recommending the perfect products for my needs.
Mainly we are looking for a sleeping bag recommendation. Something compressible, budget-friendly, and warm - she does not like being cold! I have already purchased her the same (but in the regular size, rather than large) Nemo Tensor Insulated sleeping pad. She will also be cozy in the MSR Elixir 3p tent. I purchased her a nice Gregory 60L backpack in her size that we were able to purchase on clearance through REI. Basically, all that's left to purchase is the sleeping bag.
So, anyone have a solid recommendation that won't break the bank for a women's backpacking sleeping bag?
Thank you in advance!!
