Re: Sleeping Bag Ratings
Where are you going in April? Anywhere exceedingly cold?
If you do find you are two cold in your sleeping bag you can always put
some clothes on, or have something to eat, like an oaty biscuit to fuel
your body and keep you warm.
Also, sleeping bag liners can add some warmth.

Probably a 3 season I would imagine. Take all ratings with a pinch of salt
though, different manufacturers measure these things in different ways.
Cheers for that Jay.
Just had another search and sounds about right, 3 season. Not good enough
for my April trip, so try another avenue, probably hire from the holiday
company.
