Need Review of City Lite Sleeping Bag
While I was on vacation in Oregon, I ran across a very small sleeping bag from The Woods Canada, the City Lite series (350,700, ...) the 350 weighs in at just over 2 lbs and has a pack size of 5.5"x14" which is what attracted me to it.

What I'm looking for is anyone that has used it? The 350 has a temp rating of 20 degrees F, which would be great but I'm not convinced that such a lite bag could have that temp rating. I'm planning on using it for warmer weather. I found a couple of review that were several years old that agreed with the temp rating being to low. Does anyone out there have any first hand experiance?

Jacob -

Never heard of them but you can check this link for some information on bags. Maybe they'll have some info on them.

Never heard of it either but I'm skeptical. My 15-degree, 775 down fill bag weighs about that much but won't pack down that small. Isn’t this a Thinsulate bag and not even a mummy but tapered? I'd wager the weight & size or the temp rating is way off.

Yes it is a thinsulate bag and I'll have to let you know how the temp rating is, its my big concern as well.
