>Using a bag liner or a vapor barrier (depending on the conditions) will also help keep the bag dry. Isn't the point of a vapour barrier to keep your warm body vapour in the bag, thus reducing heat loss? Would that not increase the humidity of the insulating sleeping bag and thus rule out the use of a down bag over prolonged successive nights? (Assuming that there may not be drying conditions between sleeping bag uses.) I have not used one, just trying to understand the principle. Marvin --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
