    Owyhee Top Quilt Question

    I am looking at purchasing a top quilt and have narrowed it down to the Owyhee synthetic 3 season, or the Burrow 20. The reviews on both have been great, but I am leaning towards the Owyhee mainly because of price. Both will work nicely for the winter temps we have in North GA. My question about the Owyhee is regarding the foot box. In the few photos that are available the foot box appears to be very narrow, almost comes to a point when compared to the Burrow. Any first hand experience or new pics is appreciated. I use a WBRR, and I am 6'5", so I will be purchasing the Long version of whichever I go with.

    The footbox on the Owyhee is a draw string closure (at the very bottom) and Omnitape up to the knee. It is not narrow at all on my size 10 feet, plenty of room.

    Thank for the response Rat. I am very pleased with the warmth of my New River synthetic under quilt, so I am confidant the Owyhee will be toasty as well. Just wanted to make sure there was enough room for a couple of tired feet after a long day of hiking.
