Hello Everyone, (first post) I just decided to get into hiking and am thinking about buying a woman specific sleeping bag and pad because I am 5' 4" and weigh165# (I should weigh 145-ish). The bag I am looking at is a 20 degree down bag, with a 5' 6" hgt limit and a shoulder girth of 58" (2" less the mens version) I was thinking about this because on colder nights it's less space to warm up and less to carry (8 oz and 8 cu in). I guess it would be like a 5'10" guy in a 6' bag. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

(REI Downtime +20 and Ether Thermo 6 Pad)
Any and all advice is greatly appreciated...

Thanks in advance
Jim
