Sleeping and Packing Gear

Next on the gear list is the sleeping/packing stuff.  Let's have a look:
-- "Mountain Hardwear BMG" backpack
-- "Gregory" duffel bag
-- "Camp Inn" duffel bag
-- "Mountain Hardwear Wraith"
     -20 degree sleeping bag
-- "Sea to Summit eVent" Compression stuff sack
-- "Therm-a-rest Prolite Plus" sleeping pad,
     with stuff sack
-- "Cascade Designs Ridgerest" sleeping pad,
    with stuff sack
It's cold on the mountain, so warm sleeping is a necessity.  Also, the massive amount of gear needs to be packed, shipped, and hauled a long way, so it's important to have the right bags/packs to make it happen.  The total full-price retail cost:  about $1300
