TETON - Celsius Grand XXL -25° Sleeping Bag

Teton -25 degree is amazing.

I have a Teton Sports -32F and dang that thing is warm!! Toasty as can be, used it right at freezing with no issues.

Couple of questions. You're not hiking are you? This is just for camping/car camping. Does the sleeping bag have to be for two people? Regardless, when I am car camping I don't mind bringing big items one of those which I have used the past year and a half is the Teton Sports Celsius XXL bag. It's about 80 to $85 on Amazon. If you get two of them you can zip them together as long as you get right and left zippers on each one. It's a very big sleeping bag extremely warm I have used it down to 10° in the north Georgia Mountains for five consecutive days this past November and I slept in shorts and a t-shirt. Lots of room and it keeps you warm

Okay so it's car camping in just one person correct? If so you will be perfectly fine with the Teton Sports Celsius XXL sleeping bag it goes to 0°.

Your Klymit pad has an R rating of only 1.9 - woefully inadequate. And Klymit is really squirrelly about how they go about rating their pads. **What model Cabela's do you have?** I saw a few with really high R values. You want *at least* a 4.5 rated pad. Your Cabela might be the way to go. So it looks like you have to replace your sleeping bag because of short length. Look on Amazon for *Teton Celcius XL or XXL*. They are 0°F, rectangular, and extra long, and $90. You could also pair that with a *Sea2Summit Reactor Fleece Sleeping Bag Liner*, $90 at Backcountry.com.

Check out the Teton Sports Celsius XXL (-18°C rating) for around $80-90 on Amazon.ca - its huge, you can layer clothes inside, add a fleece liner for another $20, and boom your set for those cold Canadian nights without breaking the bank.

A little self promotion here, but I bought this one for me and wrote an article about it... I needed a warm bag because of a circulation issue and I needed to be for a tall guy... I went camping in the mountains and the temp dropped into the teens. This was warm enough that I was sweating in it and had to keep unzipping it to cool down.

Agreed, they are heavy and bulky but the price to warmth is unbeatable 

Honestly, an XL Teton from Amazon will be more than fine, but choose one that is rated for temps as low as 0 degree F at least. (I wouldn't use these at 0F, but they'll be warm with 40 degree nights in Oregon) I prefer the ones with softer poly-flannel lining inside.

Lot of good replies here already. If you're car camping, Id recommend a exped megamat duo and two Teton sleeping bags. They make a very good low temp bag, and they're big. Buy a left and right for you and her and they will zip together too! Much better than a mummy or sleeping bag. Warming water bottles by the fire is a game changer too. Stay warm while you sleep. Probably the only thing that really matters when camping in low temps. If you can't warm you'll be miserable. As an aside, blankets under your pad don't do a whole lot because the insulation comes from the air in the blanket. When you lie on top of it you compress the insulation. It's better than nothing, but it's a pretty compromised experience.

The Teton sleeping bags are really warm and comfy.

ChatGPT probably is a recipe for disaster as a new backpacker who is unfamiliar with gear. But, at least you asked. So, time to make some revisions. In general, Teton is not a good brand, even for budget stuff. I had a Teton sleeping bag. It wasn’t a good purchase for me. Other people’s mileage seems to vary, which has fine, but I think you can get better gear for only a bit more. Tent - that is a REALLY unnecessarily heavy 2 person tent at nearly 7 lbs. And it isn’t a very good value when you can buy a Naturehike Cloud Up 2 person tent for the same price that only weighs 4.6 lbs. Backpack - That’s a good price, but if you would be willing to spend a little more, the REI flash 55 backpack is on sale for Memorial Day for $139. That’s a bit more but I do think it is one of the best budget packs out there when REI has it on sale like they do now. It’s a better designed backpack and it weighs about 2 lbs less. Plus they have a far better return policy than Teton. If you buy the Teton pack now, and hate it for your August trip, you’re stuck with it. But at least with REI, if you really don’t like the pack and don’t feel that it’s the right backpack for you, you can still return it post trip. Plus it would help a lot if you could get fitted for a pack in store. Sizing needs to be right. If that just isn’t possible, order online but at least watch a few videos on how to measure yourself for a backpack at home and get a friend to help measure you if possible. EDIT TO ADD - Steep and Cheap also has the granite gear crown 3 backpack on sale for $120 which is a really good deal as well. Plus it also weighs about 2 lbs less. Sleeping Bag - Be aware than Teton Sports sleeping bag temperature ratings are wildly inaccurate. From their website “The ratings we use are Survival Temperature Ratings, this is the coldest temperature the sleeping bag is designed to keep you alive in, but it doesn’t guarantee comfort. At the lowest point, you might be shivering or experience discomfort. For comfort ratings, we suggest adding 20-30 degrees from the listed rating.” So that 20 degree bag is closer to a 40-50 degree comfort rating and heavy as hell for what it is. If you really need insulation rated between 40-50 degrees, there is a company called HangTight that makes backpacking quilts. They have a 40 degree down quilt called the Hot Foot. It can be purchased with what they call the ground dweller add on package (this makes the quilt wide enough to be used comfortably while sleeping on the ground using a sleeping pad, plus it adds a system to attach the quilt to your pad). Total cost would be less than $100 and my guess is it weighs around 20 oz. That’s a huge difference for an extra $30. If, however, you actually do need to buy a warmer rated bag, the Teton bag would be. Bad choice. Again, for a budget buy, HangTight does make a 20 degree quilt called the Heatseeker that costs about $140. There’s also the Kelly Cosmic 20 down bag that’s on sale at REI for 139. Not the best bag in the world at 2 lbs. 7 ounces in the regular length, but for the temp rating (which is 20 degree limit/30 comfort) it’s not a bad price. All in all, the gear that I recommended is a bit more expensive. But if you went with the Naturehike Cloud Up 2 tent, the HangTight Hotfoot Quilt, and either the REI Flash 55 or the Granite Gear Crown 3 backpack, it would be about $80 more expensive; however, you’d be saving around 7 - 7.5 lbs, which is a lot of weight and bulk. EDIT - Plus, I imagine that the gear which I listed has a better resale value if you wanted for sell it in the future. Also, don’t forget a sleeping pad. For mild weather, if you want to keep to a low budget, I would go with closed cell foam.

As a former user of it, that Teton bag sucks. REI has their Trailmade line with a good pack on sale for roughly the same price range.

Im a big fan of the TETON SPORTS for budget and car camping sleeping bags. They are a good price for the quality. I have one that is flannel lined and is super roomy with a built in pillow that can be removed. I also agree with alot of other commentors about using blanket. A nice wool or down blanket and some sheet usually fit the bill for summer camping.
