Stick around for some bloopers at the end!
What’s up, Dirt Junkies! We all know I"m cheap, but winter backpacking gear can be expensive. I decided to put my budget zero degree sleeping bag (Teton Sports Leef) up against the more expensive Paria Outdoor Products 0 Degree Thermodown. I tested these zero degree sleeping bags outside on consecutive nights and used a thermometer outside, inside the tent, and inside the zero degree sleeping bags so I could look at actual data rather than just go by feel. In this video I'll give you an overview of both the Teton Sports Leef as well as the Paria Thermodown bag, and tell you the results on my tests.
