I have truly never pondered the simple fact that a stuff sack releases air better. I've used both depending on weather but im still scratching my head for never thinking of that simple difference. 😀

[@HilltopPacks]

Pretty much only use dry bags for food and electronics

I try to just say no to stuff sacks....but there's an enthusiastic thumbs up for Hilltop Coffee - I'm enjoying the Guatemalan variety right now. Cheers from the left coast

Very cool

[@backkat9475]

With the dry bag, if I get enough air out of it to start, it holds shape fairly well. Advantages in both. Good vid! I'm glad you showed the different sizes.

Very welcome

I use your stuff sack since I always use a pack liner but as said, it’s a personal preference. Great video, Ben!

[@HilltopPacks]

The only time I've used a dry bag for a quilt and/or sleeping bag is when I need extra space in my pack and I will strap the bag/quilt to the bottom of my pack in the dry bag.

[@HilltopPacks]

Great advice!

Got a bag recommendation for us hammock campers that need to put a 20degree topquilt and underquilt in?

I placed an order from France. I paid the shipping costs etc... and I still had to pay €15 at the reception because it was a tax package!!! Nice surprise!!!

Hi. The 50F quilt by EE, was that APEX or Down? Thanks and enjoyed the video!

[@HilltopPacks]

It was down. Thanks for watching!

[@Arizona.Ranger]

I just throw my sleeping bag into my dyneema pack liner and shove it all the way to the bottom, everything else goes on top of it.

[@HilltopPacks]

Always an option

[@davidmarbut]

Same

[@christinahikesandstuff9532]

When compressing a quilt in a dry bag, do you think it would pop seams vs the stuff sack?

[@HilltopPacks]

I havent seen that happen

[@christinahikesandstuff9532]

@@HilltopPacks Thank you! Really helpful video, just starting to organize the chaos in my pack.

@@HilltopPacks I use the Sea to Summit Event compression sack. This allow the air to escape as you compress.
