To upgrade or not to upgrade...
........that is my question. I'm considering getting the new river for my WLLO, and i'm not sure if I should get the apex upgrade, the winter upgrade, or none at all. I live in Wa, and will camp all year, but mostly all seasons except winter, and none of it will be hiking. I've got a Coleman -10*f bag as my TQ, and i'm a warm sleeper. So what should I do?
Re: To upgrade or not to upgrade...
I have two Jarbidges, on in apex, one standard. There isn't a lot of difference as far as packability, but the apex is noticeably warmer. With the upgrade being half off, I would say go for it.
Re: To upgrade or not to upgrade...
What about the winter upgrade? Can anyone vouch for it and say that it is really warm and worth it? packability isn't an issue, and warmth isn't add much since I have a good bag/TQ and good thermals.
