I've had to cut weight down, and am closing in at 15 lb.  Trying to keep
back from getting worse.  The red medium seems like a good choice, since it
does work for a side sleeper.  I will be using merino wool for first layer
and light nylon jacket for wind,raind and sun protection.  Not planning on
temps below 40 f at night.  arnie
