Reddit mentions of Texsport Fleece Sleeping Bag - Colors may vary

I'm going deep in to the woods. We are going to stay in awesome hammocks and we will be wrapped in fleece sleeping bags. We will also bring a water filtration system so we can drink from the spring rather than lugging water with us. After all, lugging a cooler or four full of beer and whiskey will be enough of a task for us.

I'm so excited that the weather is getting better that I have super duper camping on my mind. :)

You don't need everything at once. It can get pricey and if you don't know for sure that you will like an all-nighter in a hammock I wouldn't go too crazy to start.

You won’t need a mummy sleeping bag if you get an UQ. It’s more of a pain to get in and out with a sleeping bag anyway. No pics right now but this is what I have. I live in Texas so it isn’t cold all the time but I travel to surrounding states to go climbing and hiking and it has all kept me dry, bug free, and toasty down into the 30’s. I’m cheap and haven’t gone with the top name brands but this setup works perfectly for my needs. It wasn’t all bought at once and some stuff you could choose to go even cheaper and DIY. Spent less than $250.

Worth the added weight to me. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005TOR6RW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

•Plain blue tarp- maybe $10? Almost never use unless rain is anticipated.

I got one of these, works great. There are tons of similar items on amazon.

The camping gear is where things get murky. On the one hand, I have sufficient equipment for the conditions, but there's a weight/bulk issue. This is my tent it weighs next to nothing and is a cinch to attach to the backpack, even with a tarp included. As for sleeping bag/bed roll, that's where I'm having difficulty making a decision. My sleeping bag which is only rated for about 30-40 degrees F, or this combined with a blanket that is essentially two canvas sheets sewn together without filling. The fleece and canvas blanket are a little bit lighter but much less bulky, than the army bag, however, there may be times when I really wish I had the army bag. I also have a mylar blanket.
