Compressibility would be a factor

Can't wait to get out for this one. I will be hiking in Saturday afternoon when I get off work. Just to confirm we will be staying at backpack camp 7?

I may be missing out as well, started feeling really under the weather on Wednesday, sore throat cough and sinus drainage so far, hopefully this DayQuil will do it's job and I'll be OK to join...
It will be about an hour and a half drive from my work. I get off at noon, and I would assume an hour and a half-ish hike in, I'm not sprinting on this one by any means. Will everyone already be at...

Testing out my gear now in 20 degree weather and I am super toasty! There is a slight breeze at maybe 2-5mph but I think with my tarp I should be just fine.
Is anyone bringing any "luxury...
Very true... I might end up bringing some moonshine with me to share with the masses.

Can't wait! However I have not had a chance to backyard test my newest quilt. Hopefully it will handle the temperatures.

Thanks Gideon, I added secondary suspension as well as some side suspension tie outs to go over the ridgeline

Looking good is 1/3 of the battle. The other 2/3's would equally be lightweight and functionality.

Here are some more bits that will be tested...

Here is the original build thread for the quilt. All finished just have no need for them. I have two that are the same. Works well for 60+ degrees.
Again I have two of these, $60/per quilt

See if they can throw some Dutch fleas in there, lightweight titanium foot hardware. Glad you're OK though.

The best part is the fact that this whole build only cost me the amount of one roll of 1 1/2" grosgrain and one roll of 6" tulle, all together, because I had the rest of the materials, was about...

2.25oz Of down per baffle. A generous 20oz or so of down for the whole quilt! Fairly certain this will keep me warm.

I also made a Costco throw set, in copper with the same color thread and black grosgrain trim. That looks nice as well, I'll try to find that and link it here.

Thanks kitsapcowboy, my early gear definitely has flaws, there are a couple spots on this shell that I'm not to pleased with, but if it works, that's really all that matters. Also, thanks for the...
I'm hoping it will get me below 10f, not too often am I out in the negative temps but I would rather be warm than cold!

So, I had some leftover materials and I decided I wanted to make a full length UQ. Here are the details.
Outter shell - grey argon90
Inner shell- grey argon90
Baffle material- lime green 6"...
Looks good! What is the weight in total? I'm looking into climashield 10 being an option for winter hanging.

The title says it all, I am in search of a reasonably priced full length 0° or 20° under quilt, colors really don't matter unless it's really ugly, LOL.
Do we have a final count of people that are 100% going? Also, maybe we can have some interesting campfire discussion, I don't know.... Just thinking....
Super stoked for this hang! Going to be trying out some new gear as well as a new pack that I made last week. Are we going to do any type of contest or giveaway? I will bring some giveaways but I...
I'm in as well!
I am running out of things I can make unfortunately, so here is my latest venture. I didn't want to drop $200.00 on the Gossamer Gear LT3/4 poles so I decided to make my own. I called up my local...
I will try, but that's why I only posted the link, don't be surprised if it is gone shortly...
