    I'm still rockin the old suspension HG quilts and have no complaints. Also in the 20* range I prefer a partial length UQ because I'm probably more weight conscious in more moderate weather conditions than in colder temps.

    I've always thought a partial length 20* was a great first quilt choice; first because it's the one I use most and second because I know that I would eventually go to a full length on my 0* quilt for winter anyway

    Thank you all for your input. This forum is so awesome! I finally pulled the trigger and bought a Hammock Gear Incubator 20. I first left a voice mail and sent an email to see what their wait time is currently, as I'd love to get this in time for a May 8th trip and hoped maybe they'd have some in stock, but after waiting a few hours I decided to go ahead and place my order and hope, based on the great things I've heard about their customer service and based on a thread I found of recent order times this month and last. I know my trip will likely be without my new UQ, but a guy can dream, right? If it doesn't arrive in time, I'll just have more incentive to get out there again soon!

    I went Hammock Gear, just got it in the mail today. I'll let you know what I think after my trip next week. Fit n finish is excellent.

    Mine came within a week so I'm very excited to try it out this weekend! It's not as lofty as I expected, even after laying out for a few days, but maybe the pics I've seen were all overstuffed or 0* quilts.

    After using it last night, in snow nevertheless, it was great!

    What was the temperature you were at in the snow? What did you use inside the hammock for your TQ or bag? What was it rated?

    I think it got down to 27*F. I had a Big Agnes Mystic SL 15* sleeping bag, and slept in my jeans, t-shirt and a sweatshirt, with a fleece hat.
