Dryer is right!

I own a Mountain Hardware -20 Polarguard Delta 4th Dimension bag. Lord knows it's nice and warm but it is heavy and so BIG that I cannot, even with a compression sack, get it in my size large Dana Terraplane sleeping bag compartment. So I have to strap it on outside the pack.

Given the choice again I'd spend another $100. to $200. and get a good (800 fill) down bag and make a vapor barrier liner from aluminized, coated ripstop. That way I have a much lighter bag and a MUCH smaller packed bag. Plus it would not lose loft from repeated packing like all synthetics tend to do.
