Sleeping Bags and Blankets. My choices for Wild Camping, Bushcraft, Hammock camping and Backpacking.

In this video, part one in a mini series on sleep systems, I will be going through the sleeping bags and blankets/quilts I currently use for year round camping, bushcraft, hammock camping, canoe tripping and backpacking. I have owned and used a lot of sleeping bags over the years, some great and some terrible, the ones in this video are ones that I rate well and continue to use as I can rely on them – a comfortable nights rest is important in order to function and complete tasks the following day and I like to be comfortable!

I have listed links to the items shown in the video below where I am able to, items no longer in production or available have the closest equivalent item linked.

Please tune in for episode two – bivvy bags.

I hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!
