Through hiking bag / advice

Help me improve my setup

Either way, if you want to change your backpack and/or sleeping bag soon, I´d recommend the following as good value picks, that don´t break the bank.

Does 500g of backpack weight really make such a huge difference?

Rab syclon xp or lowe alpine airzone ultra. Very lightweight, still ventilated.
