We carry everything you need to make your next camping trip a sensation. I haven’t been able to try it in the wild, but I have laid in it in a cold garage. It was about 51F in the garage and I had the Nemo Cosmo Insulated 25L pad under it. I first tried it in my underwear, socks, and a beanie. I’m kind of a warm sleeper and this was right on the border of being good enough. After laying there for a bit, I put on my polypro top and bottom that I had from the Army.
Too bad the buyer at Walmart has gone to sleep on quality control on this product. I would not recommend this product to anyone unless I wanted them to freeze and get a terrible night’s sleep. I nearly froze to death on the trail, and craftsmanship is garbage (to put it mildly). “I hiked the trail in 9.5 days, so my average miles per day was 23-plus. Lorentz averaged 14 miles per day, with her longest day being 19 miles.
Ticks were unavoidable given the amount of growth encroaching on the trail,” she said. The river crossings were thus easier overall, but the trail [was] more covered in leaves, making a sprained ankle more probable,” he said. Trips may be conducted on different trails at different times and in any direction. Make sure to let a friend or family member know what you’re doing and where you’re going. I was on a budget so I figured I would go with a less expensive bag.
Dinner was freeze-dried hiking food from Backpacker’s Pantry, Patagonia Provisions, and Food For The Sole. I mailed food resupply boxes to Bushy Creek Lodge and The Landing in Van Buren. One thing Coleman sleeping bags are known for is their price.
I cannot believe that I wasted 160 dollars on some junk. By the time we got back from camping the next weekend three out of four sleeping bags had the ozark trail sleeping bag zippers broken. I’m so disappointed with this product that I advise anyone buying sleeping bags not to even look at Ozark and buy Coleman instead.
The Ozark Trail 40-60F Sleeping Bag is a sensible choice for camping, backpacking, and other outdoor activities. This washable sleeping bag has been designed for use in temperatures between 40 degrees and 60 degrees Fahrenheit, to keep you warm on cold nights. The Ozark Trail 40-60F Sleeping Bag is highly durable, as it is lined with 100% polyester ozark trail screen house fabric both on the inside and outside. This polyester sleeping bag features two sleeping bags that can be zipped together. The zippers come along the whole length of the sleeping bag, ensuring you safety from insect bite or frost bite. This washable sleeping bag also has elastic roll-up straps that help you to fold and store it easily.
Streams and creeks can run deep and quick during heavy rains, and temperatures can dip below freezing in the spring and autumn. There are long stretches without cell phone service. Drinking water is a serious consideration for any thru-hike. Even at the driest part of the year, there are many water sources on the OT, but it shouldn’t be taken for granted. Filtering or chemically treating water is overwhelmingly recommended. I used a Katadyn BeFree 1-liter filter and only needed to clean it once in my 16 days.
