Looking for a good one to everything organized in camp quickly and enjoy the time. Please share what you know.

The M means you can access articles, I think. Please do not miss the article by Roger Caffin entitled, "When Things Go Wrong." It is on this site and should be easy to search. He and his spouse were caught in a stormy blizzard at considerable elevation.

The wet sleeping bag mentioned on the Crater Lake trip could likely have been mitigated to a large extent by having a bag with DWR treated down.

He would have not only slept warmer (very important) but would have less weight to carry. His bag actually DOUBLED in weight from the moisture it accumulated in just a few nights.

Eric, you keep talking about DWR down and making claims such as the above, but what evidence do you have that DWR treated down would have actually performed better? I highly doubt DWR treated down would have performed any better or reduced moisture accumulation.
