What is the warmth rating on the sleeping bag? Warm enough for camping?

It's really only warm on the top. For summer camping it should suffice. You could put another bag in it.

If you expect colder weather for camping then you would need extra blankets to keep your child warm. The included sleeping bag is thin.

I don't know the actual rating but from my outdoor experience, I would not recommend it's use in temperatures below the high sixties.

I think I would bring another blanket if the evenings are cooler. If it is a warm night, it should be fine.

Not sure how warm it is in the Rockies but we slept out in 40F weather and we ended up sweating at night. The sleeping bag is HUGE. You are going to have a hard time fitting it into a washing machine.

depends on how cold tolerant you are - i would not try to use it if i thought it would be very cold- i used the thing in mid summer in the desert and it worked well for that and I pulled a tarp over me in the rain but your question would make me think you will want something better - this thing is a blanket - not a sleeping bag and the edges of it are loose like a blanket and do not join like a bag

If it helps, I just used mine on an air mattress on a 40-50° night. Had to zip up the sleeping bag, but slept "ok" in my clothes. I am a cold weather person though.

It is of average thickness for a sleeping bag. I've only used it on a cot and it's a great, roomy bag that kept me warm even on a couple of 40 degree nights in the Adirondacks. Remember though, even the thickest bag would compress under your weight if you're on something "hard". If you want comfort put it on a cot, or put an air mattress or a good quality pad between the bag and the hard surface.

sorry its taken so long to get back to you I don't use this e-mail often but the answer if you have the room I would recommend a ground pad, the bag is great it will keep you very warm even in sub zero temps. hope this helps

My son used it for a survival program from school in the mountains. He said low 40s he was very warm and high 30s he was still very comfortable. Great bag for the price. Would defininitely recommend

It is comfortable down to 45 degrees but it dropped into the 30's one night we were camping and it is not sufficient for that. My toes were numb for about an hour in the morning. Poor planning on my part otherwise a good bag for average build people!

Yes, I think it would be if you combined it with layered sleep ware, wool socks, and a beanie. I used it at 20 degrees and was toasty. Please be aware that sleeping bags ratings are based on survivability not comfort. Pros: very warm and comfortable. Non-mummy bag provides lots of room. Cons: It's a very large bag thus takes up a lot of space in the car or camper. Car camping only. Designed to accommodate big people. My suggestion to others is: buy two smaller bags.

I didn't find the bag to be too hot. We overnighted at just above an 8,500ft summit in Southern California with windy conditions and it kept me warm. It's light weight material allows for good night sleep in most conditions. It should be comfortable to use in both situations.

This bag is made for really cold weather, but if you don't zip it up it should be fine for warmer weather. I've used it temps of 60s and in the 20s and its a great sleeping bag

I use it camping in Texas Summers, lightweight, not much insulation. Ive also used it sleeping on a sofa while traveling, worked well.

You will survive at the listed rating, but your comfort will be in question. I was ever so slightly chilled wearing thermal underwear in a 27 degree night on a wooden platform in an Adirondack cabin. Using additional insulation below and above you might help make it work below 5 degrees, but we are planning to get different bags for camping in those conditions.

The minus 30 can only be used in winter camping it is way to hot. I used it this fall the temp was around 40 degrees and had to have the bag unzipped because it was to hot.

I would say the same as M.H. 22 inches by 14 inches. I'm not sure on the weight. I have used this bag several times sleeping outside with no tent. I took my 7 yoa daughter on our last scout campout. It was 32 degrees and she used the black bag. We slept with no tent and just a tarp on the ground. She said she was too hot during the night. I used the bivy and the green bag had no issues. It is a great system.

This Military Surplus Sleeping Bag is rated to be used in temperatures between +30 degrees to -10 degrees...add patrol bag and bivvy and i believe it can get to -40, although you will need thermals....
