    is the old bag synthetic?? I was thinking about putting down in a synthetic bag until I learned I would have to sew baffles in it. Then I realized I might as well start from scratch.

    oh, and also expensive. campmor had the regular for $99, which was $20 or so cheaper than everywhere else. It also comes with a stuff sack and repair kit, which the prolite does not.

    sounds tasty, I would never think of that method of freeze drying. If I didn't love eating like a squirrel I would buy a dehydrator.

    IF you can buy dog food, you can also buy a bag or can of nuts, oats, beans in the same place. Seems like your friend was making excuses for an old habit. :) *wags tail

    That's all news to me. Fortunately I don't eat very much canned food. I wonder if sardines have the same lining?

    Also, if it's in a can, it doesn't need to be heated. .. .

    I was thinking about doing this, but like previously mentioned by daddytwosticks, the fleece sleeping bag weighs as much as my old worn out 30 degree synthetic kelty, which is now more like a 45 bag....

    I've been doing this for a while, granted I only shave my neck, but it does seem to make the blades last a lot longer.
