fans BLANKET OR SLEEPING BAG ?
When it comes to choosing what's best to keep you warm at night and you have to choose between a bag or a blanket, I go with blanket every time.
For several reasons.
1. I don't like to feel restricted, a bag will often do this.
2. You are not wasting any of the loft, with a bag the underside is compressed under your bodyweight and loses all of the ability to trap any warmth.
3. A blanket is more versatile.
4. A blanket is easier to air.
5. If you like to hammock camp then when combined with a underquilt the blanket is much more comfortable others are likely to make you feel like you are cocooned.
These are my thoughts, which method do you prefer ?
