Bear with me...I'm older and slower than I was yesterday...the back story... My slide in truck camper has seen better days... beating it up and down the Baja peninsula a couple of times, testing it a bit beyond it's wood frame construction's limits a few hundred times over the years on various stateside trips, has taken it's toll. , Like @Dave, Machelle and I have gone back to our roots, to the tent thing. I screwed up on my first tent purchase and didn't get the model that I could stand up in, (Cabela's 4 man Alaskan Guide, should have bought the 6 man). Anyway, the tent design is impressive for my needs. I wanted a tent that I could use without the fly, but not have entire walls be just screen (remember the old thing...we use a porta-potti in the tent...you want to watch me do my thing..you still can, but you have to look through a roof panel, rather than a screen wall. It's a solid geodisic design, not tested with severe winds yet, but confident it will stand up to what I've experienced in my travels with previous tents.
Back to the original idea behind this thread...I have an assortment of used, crappy, worn out, cheap, sleeping bags.
Machelle and I usually sleep on individual cots in the tent. We're SoCal'ers, but we're old , real temperatures are probably upper '20's, in my head I want 0* bags. Here's the catch, I like the old school canvas/flannel style bags, don't give a damn how much it weighs/big it packs (I managed to fill up a 3/4 ton truck with crap for the Baja 400 last month...I'll figure out how to pack two more bags)!
Recommendations anyone? For those of you not keeping up with my ramblings (I'm sure I lost a few millennial's, intweb experts and assorted other's along the way)...looking for a canvas/flannel style 0* bag recommendations.
