That actually seems to point towards the Marmot Helium which I had been considering already.
Honestly I only look for EN standards. Being from Europe myself I don't really understand the other ratings here. They seem to always say very low temperatures which I do not quite believe. Instead I always look for the comfortvalue of the EN standard. All the other numbers don't really help me.
At the moment I do not intend to do any camping in snow conditions. In addition to the bag there is also the weight of the liner as well

nina wrote:Nice chart photohiker. But again, what is the estimated temperature rating there? I looked at the linked website which doesn't tell me whether that is a comfort or a limit temperature, for women or for men, ...
But it is so true, the loft height and quality defines in the end how warm the bag is.
Thanks for your input, I'll let you know what I decided on. In January I can then say whether the bag was a good choice to take with on the OLT
