    UQ Length for 3 Season/AT Thru Hike

    What would you guys recommend for the most versatile UQ length for an AT thru-hike/3 season hiking. I say most versatile because I plan on carrying a Neoair X-Lite to be able to stay in shelters when I want to. Sometimes I do enjoy the shelter atmosphere.

    So I carry a 20* Top Quilt and a Neoair X-Lite.

    In order to save weight as much as possible but still be comfortable, would you guys recommend a full, 3/4, or 2/3 length UQ.

    I'm 5'9" if that helps. I feel like 3/4 would be the best compromise and would save 2-3 oz over a full length.

    Any input?

    Regards,
    Fast Fox

    I would go with the 3/4 20º UQ.
