    I take it this is a new item for MMG? Don't see any reviews.

    Looking for TQ good to 30-40 dF - is 3/8" Climashield really enough for that.
    I have no experience with climashield so am ignorant of its capabilities. At this price might be what I'm looking for

    It should be just right!

    That is a bargain price and a great weight! I'm surprised I've not seen anyone talking about it seeing as it's been out a couple of months?

    Does anyone have a picture of it in a stuff sack? I am curious to see how small it is/can be.

    I have the MM Top Blanket and just returned from a camping trip. The low got to 44 and I was perfectly warm.
    Not sure how much further it will take me but I'm guessing by the low-mid 30's I'll need another blanket.

    No picture, sorry. Climashield packs very well. The Top Blanket is less than 1 liter, fully compressed.

    Wow, that is small. What temperature do you think this would take you to?
