    Hi, math and physics professor here. Argentina. I have an issue. I bought a down sleeping bag. Tested it 5C and 7 C degrees, 95 percent humidity Buenos Aires. My bag, condensates inside! I need to figure this out as this kinda cheap item is extremely expensive for my country. More strange, I asked the person who has this bag and recomended it to me. (A woman like me, similar weight and height). She never had this issue! My bag condensated so much inisde, that woke me up both nights, and I had to wipe the inside with my fleece. I was wearing only a thin layer of termic first skin clothes, synthetic. My bet, is that the inner material does not breath enough. Obviously, as the night went by, it did evaporate to the exterior, dumpling the feathers and making me cold. My tent has poor to no vent, and there was no wind. ( But even if I try to vent, everything is wet outside because of the humidity of the night, so no great solution). Should I go back ro synthetic instead?? Any thoughts? Thanks!!!!

    Thanks for the great tips and tricks. Putting them to good use in winter camping weekend in Algonquin Park Canada. Can I ask about sunglasses? Heading to Iceland in a few months and have 12% sunglasses. Do I need $300 7% mountaineering sunglasses?

    • @ALinsdau
      @ALinsdau  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I like my mountaineering sunglasses at high altitude on glaciers. I had a climbing partner from Australia who literally went snowblind on the summit of Denali because his glasses weren't dark enough. Someone was kind enough to guide him down and save him.
      He said he should've combine his goggles with his regular sunglasses.

    Really useful explanation, thanks, Aaron. We don't often get much below freezing in most parts of the UK, but we do get a LOT of very damp air... even before taking sweating into account. In winter, some people here put their down sleeping bag inside a breathable bivi bag inside the tent, the idea being that any frosting forms on the outside of the bivi rather than the sleeping bag. But I'm never sure whether a bivi would be breathable enough to allow sufficient moisture to escape or whether it might make matters worse. Do you have any views on this, please?

    I saw a tip from ultralight backpacking that a rain jacket and rain pants can double as a vapor barrier instead of packing a separate VBL. Any thoughts on that?

    Went cowboy camping under the stars a few days ago with night temperatures around -7°C/20Fand day temperatures around +5°C/41F. Woke up to substantial frost and frozen breath on my WM Apache GWS. Scraped off most of it, but because of above-freezing-temps throughout the day, the remaining frost melted and the outer shell of the bag was wet when i unpacked it. Not a huge problem as i could dry the bag completely at home. But would you suggest using a vapor barrier liner under these conditions on a multi day hike? Not sure if it would be too hot, since i'm still within the comfort range of my sleeping bag. I have no experience with VBLs but i am worried about how much the down can take before it is permanently damaged 🤔

    Can I ask a question please? How does moisture vapor works when one is moving quick in the cold? For example somebody on a motorcycle. Maybe he sweats but the cold wind is very close to the skin. I dont think a wicking baselayer is enough right?

    • @ALinsdau
      @ALinsdau  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you're struggling with convection on a motorcycle, that's going to be a tough roll. A simple base layer wouldn't be enough on a bike.

    Nice ! Ok Aaron , here is one for you . When I was stationed in Germany , the first time in " winter " that I slept in my bag . I was colder than #$@$ . That next morning after talking to a few people , including my NCOIC . They all said to strip down naked , and I'd be warm . Which I did , was , from then on . Though I find it hard to do . I told this experience to my sons years ago . One still does this in Colorado . I can't bring myself to do it in my warm enough bag . But now , after having watched this video . I am wondering if it is BEST way to accomplish what you explained , is to be nude , so all of your body heat pushes the vapor as you described ? Further , I did notice that you were bundled your last camping video . So , what is BEST , Naked or bundled ???? ... Gubs

      I truly believe that is a bonafide myth. And I bet you that idea originated if the occupant was WET… and the importance of removing the wet clothes!
      I too, would be interested in Arron’s thoughts.
