Thus, the requested help. There is some really good advice here and I agree with just about everything I have read. Thanks guys.... The Warbonnet really seems to be getting some recommendations. I have done plenty of sleeping out on the ground with nothing except a poncho, so I am pretty sure they will all be somewhat comfortable. And like I said, I am going to use a pack that I can carry on a plane, or will fit under a seat of a bus, etc. The point being that I do not want it out of sight if the traveling gets dodgy. So I need something that really packs small. But at the same time...I would really like to have multi-season capability. I like the fact that the Warbonnet can be used on the ground as a bivy too. And I totally agree that integrated bug net is important! That is one of the put-offs of the ENO right now.
Thanks
