    I've got one of the High Peak 0 degree bags. I have tested it down to 5 degrees back in January. This was with a tent and a 3/4 Thermarest inflatable.

    For the price (around 65$) the bag does what it says it does. Weighs about 3.1lbs. and packs down to a lil larger than a nalgene.

    no one has mentioned, but if there is an REI near you, you can rent an excellent bag for a week (or two?) and it is not excessive- otherwise- think about borrowing something from the folks that sprung the trip on you..or their friends who can't go, or something like that.
    have a great time!KM

    I just sent them a call on the 1-800 number to ask some questions about the down's sizing, and everything the gentleman said seemed to be scripted, like he wasn't even having a real conversation. He also seemed to assume that I'm a boyscout, and went on about how the prices in China are changing everyday. It all seems very sketchy, but maybe I'm just paranoid.
    Don't know anything about the site but my son and I have been using the
    Extreme Pak 0 deg 3.1 lb bags for about 2 yrs now. Price is about the same as what we paid. They are synthetic and have gotten us through temps in the 20's easily. Pretty good for 3.1 lbs and a low price. We have been comfortable as low as 17 deg with insulated coveralls on.

    Got mine on ebay. Just do a search for High Peak Extreme Pak.
    I believe they are a discontinued item but I still see them occasionally.

    They are not discontinued as I just picked up a blue/black one. That is the exact same model in January I had down at 5 degrees. Cold night that one was... LOL! But yea, the bags work great for the money. I see also they are now offering a down version. 0 degree and weighs about 1 lb.
