El Perro Negro's Day to Day Ramblings

After a couple of mountain bivouacs I am sold on using Sleeping Quilts rather than Sleeping Bags.

  1. Generally lighter weight (no zip)
  2. You can micro manage temperatures much better than enclosed in a bag
  3. You can turn & move much easier
  4. Zips! There aren't any. How frustrated have I got in the past when zips get snagged whilst trying to extract oneself quickly in the middle of the night?

Photos ... me & my better half tucked in for the night at our last location.
