[at-l] Sleeping bag detective work

[RET33@prodigy.net (Robert Tomlinson)]

I am leaving tomorrow to do the AT section from Wayah Bald (where my last
year's hike at this time ignominiously ended due to threat of snow and wimpy
companions - haha) down past Standing Indian to where the trail crosses
Highway 76 - a spot about 20 miles west of Clayton, Georgia. I actually hit
the trail Sunday morning with three other friends and get off Thursday
afternoon.

I have my three sleeping bags lined up and I am having a hard time deciding
which would keep me warmest. Is it solely based on the thickness of the
"stuffing"? I suspect not, but I don't have a lot else to go on. The
thickest one is a DuPont with Hollofil 808 - nylon outside and cotton like
plaid inside.The other bag ( the biggest one) is a Slumberjack with nylon
outside and cloth inside. The third one is a Coleman - green cloth outside
and red felt like inside - seems to be the lightest weight bag and the only
one I am pretty sure I am not taking.

Anybody feel like a sleeping bad detective out there? I will provide any
further clues if you tell me where to look.

Also, if anyone else is going to be in that neighborhood during those days,
let me know.

Thanks.
