    Never froze yet... You will figure it out. I have never played with the 2 your talking about but HG makes some great stuff. Never seen anyone complain.
    How have you been able to do that without an underquilt? use of a pad?

    I have used The Nest down to 20F (with single layer of wool long johns, hat, gloves, and down boots) and have been very cozy. Depending on how cold/warm you sleep your results may be different.

    The Nest can be compressed down to about the size of a Nagalene bottle if you want to compress it that far.
    While the above is all true the best UQ for the side zip models is the MT Washington series... Dual differential design, body contouring radial baffles...In stock and ready to ship.

    The AHE Potomac does fit perfectly, won't slip off your shoulder and provides enough warmth. Get it in Apex if they offer it that way.
