Down sleeping bag with Goretex?
Hello.
On my last roadtrip through California, i encountered a lot of rain...i mean, LOTS of rain. My Frank Thomas Goretex pants and BMW jacket with Goretex liner preformed much better then expected, and the Bibler tent finally proved its worth (and thats half-price on E-bay). The only part of my kit that was a problem getting wet was my synthetic fill sleeping bag. Even after a heavy rainfall, the inside of my tent would be dry to the touch, but by morning i would have condensation on my sleeping bag. I used whatever i could to wipe off the "sweat", but the bag would always get packed a little wet. This was never a problem for two weeks, always ended up with a dry bag in the end, but i wonder, what do you guys with down bags do in this situation. Who has time to dry your sleeping bag before you hit the highway? Is Goretex the answer to the down sleeping bag equation?
