“I LOVE the sleeping bag,” wrote Sue Allen during a wilderness dogsled 
run. The bag was Northern Outfitters’ -30 Expedition-Weight Sleeping Bag. She said the bag, alone, was like having a tent with “so much room you can turn over, a comfortable pad on the bottom,” and the ability to compress down to 24 X 10.5 inches (about 6.5 pounds). Sue, a kennel owner and dogsled expert, was driving a yearling dogsled team to Nome, Alaska, for Iditarod champ Martin Buser. She said the bag was a hot topic of conversation at the camps and checkpoints along the way, and she plans to use it during the Iditarod.
