A great sleeping bag for moderate weather camping trips, the Slumberjack Big Scout junior-sized, mummy-style sleeping bag fits sleepers up to a maximum height of 5 feet, 5 inches. It features Slumberloft HQ fill, which provides great warmth and loft at a great price, and a double-layer offset construction with a differential cut that allows insulation to loft fully. The flip-over hood allows you to turn the hood inside out, giving you the option for a flat hood or a fully-contoured hood, while the trapezoid foot box provides space in which the feet remain in a natural position for better comfort. Other features include an insulated draft tube with anti-snag zipper protection and easy-grab pull tabs.

Why a Mummy Bag?
Mummy-style sleeping bags take up less room and weigh the least. They're also smaller in size than rectangular bags, thus decreasing the amount of space around the body. The less space that needs to be warmed by body heat, the warmer the bag will be.

• Carry size: 9 by 18 inches
• Fill weight: 2 pounds

Sleep Well: Finding the Right Sleeping Bag
Sleeping bag technology has come a long way from the days of cowboy bedrolls. These days, there are a number of high-tech materials and designs available to keep you warm during the coldest outings. Here's a short list of things to keep in mind when you're shopping for a bag:

Buy for Cold
It's a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. That's why it's smart to buy a bag that's rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35. Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than -10.

Keep in mind that sleeping bag manufacturers' temperature ratings only estimate the minimum temperature at which the bag will provide warmth. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as different folks generate different amounts of heat when they sleep. If you're the type who likes to pile on the covers even on warmer nights, go for a bag that's rated ten degrees colder. The opposite is true for "warm" sleepers--a 35-degree bag will probably work for you on a 25-degree night.

Goose or No Goose?
The most important component of any sleeping bag is its insulating material. Modern sleeping bags offer two choices: goose down or synthetic. While both materials have advantages and disadvantages, down bags are considered superior because of their phenomenal warmth-to-weight and warmth-to-bulk ratios. While providing great insulation, down is extremely compressible and light. There's a reason why geese can fly and stay warm through the winter! Down also boasts great long-term durability and will typically retain its insulating properties after years of use.

All of that said, there are many high-quality synthetic bags on the market and synthetic materials are getting better all the time. While a synthetic bag will weigh somewhat more than a down bag at an equivalent temperature rating, synthetic bags perform better when wet. (Yes, the Achilles heel of down is that it loses all insulating properties when wet.) If your trips take you to wet climates, you may want to consider a synthetic bag for this reason alone. Keep in mind, too, that many people are allergic to down--synthetic bags are non-allergenic. Finally, down is considerably more expensive than synthetic, which might tip the balance for adventurers on a budget.

Bags for All Shapes
Sleeping bags come in two basic shapes that reflect their intended use. Mummy-shaped bags offer the best warmth because they conform to the body's contours. This minimizes the amount of body heat the body must put out to maintain a constant temperature. Many mummy bags are offered in women-specific shapes and sizes, as well. Rectangular bags, while they do offer more room to toss and turn, are less thermally efficient because they contain more open air space. Also, they are typically heavier than mummy bags, and are generally not offered with down insulation, making them best suited for car camping or short backpacking trips.

Pad Yourself
No matter what kind of bag you choose, a sleeping pad is a required accessory. Not only do they provide much-needed comfort when sleeping on the ground, pads also offer crucial warmth for your backside, as the weight of your body compresses--and renders virtually useless--the sleeping bag insulation that lies beneath you.

Perfect for all adventurers who want to travel light--from kayakers and fast packers to motor and pedal cyclists--the ultralight Meridian sleeping bag has a carry weight of under 2.5 pounds. This mummy-style, warm weather bag is temperature rated to 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and it features a soft Merino wool liner. It has a ventilated trapezoid foot box that provides space in which the feet remain in a natural position for better comfort. Other features include anti-snag zipper protection, easy access drawcords, and easy-grab pull tabs. The bag is comfortable for campers 5 feet, 11 inches.

Don't be left out in the cold without your Slumberjack Sleeping Bag Pillow included / Roll-up Hood
Customer Review: Nice
My son loved the frogs and it seemed like a perfect fit. I could see how the material may easily rip in the wash in the future and don't buy it for the pillow! It easily rolls up and velcros for easy storage and carrying. Overall, we like this product.
Customer Review: Nice Sleeping Bag
Very nice sleeping bag. Seems to be made well. The pillow is little but it's suppose to fit little heads. Someone had said theirs had come in a clear plastic bag, but mine came in a box...it did have the picture on it but it was a gift so it was wrapped up. My grandson did like it.
