I finally figured out why my sleeping bag felt damp every morning

I kept waking up with condensation inside my bag on camping trips near Lake Tahoe. Last weekend I paid attention and realized I was zipping the bag ALL the way up with my face covered. My breath was the problem, not the tent. Switched to leaving a small opening near my mouth and the dampness went away overnight. Anyone else deal with this or am I just a heavy breather?

Found this same thing out the hard way myself, it's super frustrating right

Maybe it's just me but I actually like having my face covered? I sleep way better when it's dark and cozy. But yeah I learned this the hard way too after a trip to Yosemite where my bag felt like a wet towel every single morning. Took me like three trips to figure out it was my own breath haha.
