I've just started as an instructor in the Army cadets in teh Western Isles and have been advised that getting my own sleeping bag would be a good idea! I also fancy exploring the Islands so will use it outside of the cadets too. However, I could do with some help picking which one to get. I have about £80 to spend, would prefer a new bag and am 5'6" and average build.
So far I've narrowed the choice down to three: Snugpak Elite 3, Snugpak Elite 4 and the Carinthia Defence 4.
I will be getting a Berghaus Centurio 45 rucksack so don't want anything too huge (or heavy) when compressed and I would imagine using the sleeping bag between March and October, staying mostly in tents or improvised shelter.
I don't know which would be best as I'm new to this so your help choosing is really appreciated!
Thanks, David
