Dd is going camping and staying in a barn. We have 2 sleeping bags but fairly old so cannot find online to check the technical details. We have:
Wynnster Elite Lite II
Ayachucho Series 300
Does anyone know if either is 3 season? Likely to be ok with a sleeping mat and maybe a fleece to sleep in a barn next weekend?
many thanks

Are there definitely no labels on them anywhere @Oxonc3? They should tell you.

But yes, a fleece liner, a picnic blanket, a woolly hat and some fingerless gloves and she should be fine Wink

Thank you @SiouxsieSiouxStiletto .She’s off with an inflatable sleeping mat, a hat, a mermaid tail fleece (!) (so like a fleece liner😩) and the puffiest of the 2 sleeping bags that has a drawstring neck tie to stop drafts. Neither bag had any labels so hoping she will be ok.

A hot water bottle would be a good shout. I've been known to use a heat proof water bottle (nalgene) with a big sock around it to keep warm. Bonus of clean drinking water in the morning if you happen to be anywhere suspect!

Is she going today? I mean it's warm for October but that's about the only good thing about the weather today...

@SiouxsieSiouxStiletto yes today for 4 nights but quite far from Storm Babet

Hi, did you know the sleeping mat is just as important as the sleeping bag?
Unless hers is a really high R rating, I would get one of those rolled up foam mats to put under her inflatable. Honestly she will thank you for this! The amount of cold that comes up through the ground is surprising

Thank you she has a Decathlon inflatable
mat so hoping is ok.
