Hi Amit,

I also have ordered the Arktida Sleeping bag. Do you carry it in some compression sack or stuff sack ?

You generally get it with the compression sack and can keep it on the inside top of the sack with the upper lid closed. Once you camp for the day, remove the sleeping bag from the sack to avoid unnecessary weight. Else you may fill the sleeping bag inside the bottom zipper of the sack (usually all sacks now come with bottom zipper for sleeping bag or rain cover storage) and keep the compression sack as seperately inside.

While you are in a travel group or through a trek agency, let the porters do their job and carry the extra stuff for you including sack and sleeping bag.

Gr8 stuff. It will be worth value for money. To add your excitement, open the sleeping bag at night and jump inside it to experience the feel of temperature comfort rating and the pleasure of owning one
