I'm looking for a good sleeping bag for a trip to Kilimanjaro in January. I am looking for a good down bag rated in the minus 20 degree range. Please let me know if you have one at a good price.
You know Ed Viesturs used only a 0 degree bag on alot of his 8,000meter climbs. I think he wore his down climbing suit though.
If I was going to climb a mountain like Kili I would get a Feathered Friends sleeping bag or a Western Mountaineering.

I just put down my deposit with Zara Tours. I am going in mid-January, which is the warmest time to do the trek. I am scheduled to summit during a full moon. By the way, thanks for the suggestions, I will follow the link you posted.
Sounds lie a cool trip (no pun intended)!
