The EMS Mountain Light 20° Down Sleeping Bag is a basic bag, that was beyond it's limit at 22 degrees. Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Mountain Light 20° Down Sleeping Bag is on the same level as the Kelty Cosmic I tested previously. Same type of construction and materials. But the weak draft collar and draft tube really limits it's effectiveness. The EMS Mountain Light 20° Down Sleeping Bag would be okay at 30 degrees and above. On sale, this would be an alright beginner backpacking down bag or camping.
