The Best Sleeping Bag
I needed to buy a new sleeping bag for a winter
camping trip. So, I went to a camping store and compared
three different brands
of sleeping bags: Ultra Comfort,
1
Snowy Down, and Northern Trek. I wanted to look at
each sleeping bag very carefully. For winter camping, the
Snowy Down had the highest rating. But in some ways,
the other two sleeping bags were better. Of the three
sleeping bags, the Snowy Down was the warmest, but it
was also the most expensive. The Northern Trek cost less
than the Snowy Down, but it was just as expensive as the
Ultra Comfort. The Ultra Comfort was warmer than the
Northern Trek. Finally, the Ultra Comfort was lighter than
the other sleeping bags, so it was easier to carry.
I decided not to get the Northern Trek for camping
outside. It wasn’t as warm as the other sleeping bags. But
we were having a mild winter, so I didn’t need the warmest
kind of sleeping bag. So I looked more closely at the lightest
sleeping bag, the Ultra Comfort. That’s the one I chose.
