Sea to Summit is well known for their lightweight camping and hiking gear. Recently, they have introduced a military range to satisfy the needs of the Australian military. We’ll give you a look at a couple of their offerings.
This is the Task Force Tf Sleeping Bag. Based on the Spark Sp which has been supplied for years as part of UK MOD aviation survival kits, the Task Force Tf is filled with 850+ Premium Goose ULTRA-DRY Down. This gives protection down to -9 Deg Celsius at a weight of just 340g. As you can see, it compresses down to just 1.5 liters in size.
Next up is the X-Kettle Set. The bottom is mettle and will take direct flame. This kit contains an X-kettle and two mugs nested together.
The X-kettle has a 1.3 liter capacity and weighs 885 grams, collapsing to just 35mm high. This color is only available in the military version.
I have 2 of the spark sleeping bags (one 20deg and one 35deg). They are amazing how small they pack down. Nothing else on the market even seems close.
I hope this stuff is available in the US soon!
