Re: Which quilt

Chriss do.
 
Make one! Ray Jardine sells a kit for half the price  that  those other guy.
If you do not sew then perhaps you can find a seanstress or quilter from a local fabric store
who might do it for $50 and you'd still save $50.

Hope that helps?

Subject: [BackpackingLight] Which quilt
  

 
   
 
OK folks I recently bought a 3 season Adrenaline Mummy from Golite. It s a nice bag but I find it rather confining. I'm looking at alternatives and a buddy of mine suggested a quilt especially since I am a hot side sleeper.

He suggested the following 3 quilts I'm interested in your thoughts....
http://www.golite.com/UltraLite-800-Fill-3-Season-Quilt-Regular-P46821.aspx 

http://www.jacksrbetter.com/shop/sierra-stealth/ 
http://www.jacksrbetter.com/shop/shenandoah-standard-rectangular-quilts/

 or this one but I'm not too fond of the price... http://www.jacksrbetter.com/shop/sierra-sniveller/

I was hoping for a sub 1 lb. if I'm going to switch but the Golite products seem worth the extra bit of weight assuming they aren't too small.

I'm 5' 10" 185 lbs assuming that matters for recommendations.
