THE RIGHT SIZE FOR SLEEPING — A common error in backpack planning is to try and make a single piece of equipment work in all conditions. This is especially bad when you try to use a single sleeping bag for all seasons. Spend the extra money and purchase bags designed to operate in a certain temperature range, lightweight bags for warm weather and heavier ones for the cold. Also, make sure that your sleeping bag has enough, but not too much air space in it. The more air space you have, the more you have to heat.
