Can anyone point me in the direction of a decent sleeping bag online, in the e50-e80 region that will suit a guy of 6'4.

Thanks

Try those guys, I've one of their sleeping bags. Kept me warm on bare rock at 3,600m. Kinda pricey though.

Where are you based? Your local outdoor shop should be able to provide a good sleeping bag. I'd say find out what the coldest tempture is likely to be and the go for a sleeping bag with a comfort rating below this.
