The Sea to Summit Basecamp BC1 Sleeping Bag is a bit of a trickster. I'm not sure that we've seen a more charmingly versatile bag!
Sure, it's filled with 750+ loft 90/10 premium grey duck down, making it a beautiful lofty bag that boasts a great weight vs warmth ratio. But it's the way that it handles anything that you throw at it that makes it so impressive. Is it really cold? No worries. Zip yourself right up, pull the hood over your head, and pull the drawcords tight. Toasty in no time. It's warming up. Great. Unzip either side or both at once. Let the air flow. Bit warmer? Zip both sides right down just leaving a comfy foot box to keep your most extreme extremities snug. Are things heating up? Zip the top from the base and use it as a quilt. Now it's really hot? Cool. Strap the base to your sleeping mat and go 'topless'!
I did say the Basecamp was versatile, didn't I? And to top it off it has a neat little elastic strap to strap your pillow to the outside of the hood. No more waking up with a crookneck. Just super comfy sleep, no matter what the temperature.

Zipped to another bag?1 answer
Hi Guys, can this be zipped to a 2nd bag to make a double?

G'day Andy,
I've just double checked and you won't be able to zip two Basecamp BCI bags together to form a double.

Compressed size2 answers
Hello, for the long version, what is the packed dimension, and what is the compressed dimension? Also, can it be unzipped to a full size quilt, or does it separate into two quilts?
Bill - Victoria (6 years ago)
G'day Bill,
Thanks for your enquiry. I've just measured the display model we have in store and can confirm the packed and compressed dimensions are 40cm in length, 30cm in width and 15cm in height. The bag already comes compressed within the stuff sack. The Sea to Summit Basecamp BCI comes with two full length zips on either side of the bag and a separate zip at the feet so you can use the bag as a quilt if you wish.

Update 17/3 - Sorry for the confusion folks. To clarify, the Basecamp BCI does come with a separate compression sack that is smaller than the storage bag. It is a 7.8L Ultra-Sil compression sack that has a diameter of 18cm and length of 30-40cm when compressed (depending on how much you choose to compress the bag)
