Hi Geraldine,?
If you are getting hip bruises under a heavy load, it may be a sign that the hip belt on the pack you are using isn't suited for your body type.? That is a conclusion I came to myself after using a Gregory Baltoro for a number of trips and having the same thing
happen to me.? The problem went away after switching to other packs.??

Thanks Tom, that's very helpful.
If there is no difference when punctured, then that makes my sleeping bag decision much easier.
On the backpack, I will look at upgrading to a similar model, however I would have to say it's been working fine for me, and the fact that I get hip bruises on a heavy load; is it just me?), is not necessarily related to the
life of the foam. I have always got them on a longer trip.
Thanks for all your help,
?Geraldine.
