have a good morning
Article Abstract:
A good sleeping bag should be made out of rugged material and fit snugly. The typical sleeping-bag types are the mummy, the rectangular, the semi-rectangular, the overbag, and the bivy sack. The temperature ratings must be considered carefully when purchasing a sleeping bag. The fill material is equally important, with down being the choice of most backpackers. There are typically models designed specifically for women.
