Sew a zipper into a military PONCHO LINER and never leave it behind. Mine has been with me for 15+ years. They are AWESOME. US Marines call it their Woobie, it is even on the packing list titled tha way. Try one and you will see why.

Whatever you decide for blanket or bag,Definitely get yourself a Silk liner bag,they are multi-use & very comfortable,very lightweight,very cheap!They work well alone in the summer,& add warmth when it's chilly.You can get them on Fleabay for about 15 bucks delivered!

I saw one of these at an outdoor store shortly after Richacal's suggestion so I picked one up. I'm very happy I did! It's lightweight, snuggly, small (it's a bit smaller than my 32 oz Nalgene) and it didn't break the bank. ($19.99 regular, on sale for 45% off.) Thanks for the tip Richacal! I love my fleece sleeping bag liner but it's too big to pack in my EDC daypack/GHB. This silk liner is perfect!

I have silk long underwear but have never tried the sleeping bag. I know that they are pretty much required in many European hostels. And would have been a blessing many times in the Middle East. Jac finds all the good deals. I rarely do
