Too bad I don't have any trees in my backyard! I can go to a local park at least for a few hours to test everything out.
hutzelbein - Thanks for your comments. Whenever I use the Xlite, I find that I have to partially deflate it anyway. I've used the Xlite this past winter (with the 1/2 Ridgerest underneath), and was comfortable aside from the fact that my bag wasn't up to par. I have a 20* EE Revelation quilt on its way. I think that with the included pad straps, I'll be able to keep it in place.
I've read many threads on this site, and found that rigging the Ridgerest and Xlite like a "T" will provide adequate additional insulation for my shoulders/core.
