Winter Camping

Hi all I'm planning to do some winter campaign in Britian and Ireland. Can you recommend some winter sleeping bags and one man tents? I thought the military would be the best people to ask- Ta

I have a Snugpak Softie 9 Hawk sleeping bag that has always kept me very warm. I have camped in it all year round, though never in sub zero conditions. Movement is fairly limited inside it, but I think that's the case with most winter sleeping bags.

I have a vango blade 100 tent, which is very light weight and great in high wind, but to be honest I hardly ever use it. I've been using a hammock and tarp recently, which is something I recommend you look into. Check out the DD Frontline hammock.
