I was on the move with these trips and never slept two nights in the same spot. Major takeaway: it is easy to pack and unpack with the adjustable stuff sack. Rainier backpacking, which included one night car camping and one night backpacking. Backpacking Loop in Grand Teton National Park, which included one car camping night and two backpacking nights.Mason Lake Backpacking Trip, which included one dispersed camping night and one night backpacking.So far, I’ve taken this sleeping bag on three backpacking trips: Let’s get into more details about this sleeping bag. The sleeping bag I used in Joshua Tree is my Marmot Eco 20, a good eco-fill alternative, but trying out a hydrophobic down bag with the Parsec 20was eye-opening in terms of how light, compact, and strategically warm a sleeping bag can be. I’ll be writing about these items individually, as well as how they work together in my “Creating a Backpacking Sleep System” post. I reached out to Therm-a-rest, who graciously sent me a sleeping bag, sleeping pad, and new pillow. Although I was doing some things right, I was also doing a lot of things wrong.

When I got back, I researched what I could do better and learned how to build a better sleep system. After the second night, I decided to cut the trip short by one night instead of bearing the cold weather. Each night I tossed and turned, not being able to fall asleep. Never technically freezing, the temps reached the low 40’s, and my sleep system was not prepared. You would think that the deserts are mild at night, but it was COLD. The story originates back in February 2021, when I went to Joshua Tree National Park for what was supposed to be three nights.
