Backpack Sleeping
who makes the best lightweight tents, backpacks, sleeping bags?

am looking for the finest, lightest American-made equipment for a possible hike across the country. Need a one-man tent, or maybe just a really good sleeping bag. Will be hiking a lot, must have the lightest and best. Thank-you!

I seriously doubt if anything is actually made in America anymore so scratch that requirement off of your list
At certain level and price point things pretty much will equal out and the decision will then be based upon what’s good for you and your own particular circumstances
