Hey Paul, any plans to offer down versions of your under quilts?

Nice looking quilt, pg. Now I gotta get one.

Is it in the MARPAT camo? I forgot to ask!

Simple answer yes, more complex answer, not quite yet. I love down gear, but the best deal I have found yet on bulk down in the US wants me to order in 15 pound minimums. 1 thats a lot of down, two thats a lot of $$$$'s so it will be a little bit before we are quite up and running on down but I am planning a sewn through baffle version of all three quilts, hopefully for spring. I will eventually be offering a baffled version of these quilts and some other designs that are floating around in my head as well.

yes it is, and it left yesterday so you should have it probably by tomorrow.

It arrived today Paul! SWEET looking piece of gear! I was planning on using it this weekend. But as I was heading out the door at work today, my presence was requested for tomorrow

Guess I can't complain, at least I'm lucky to just be working AND getting some OT. That way I can keep sending you money

UM Yah, we are going to need you to come in saturday,

Oh, oh, and I almost forgot. Ahh, I'm also gonna need you to go ahead and come in on Sunday, too...

Received the Lost River today, Paul. Thanks. Looks like a great quilt.

Just 16.7 oz INCLUDING suspension (minus stuff sack). I'll give it a shakedown tomorrow night.

I have an "original" Potomac KAQ I bought from Take-A-Knee that I often combine with my HH SS. I've made a "sandwich" from two emergency blankets for my OCF pad, which goes between the hammock bottom and the SS. I then suspend the KAQ outside the SS. I have seen posted the technique of having the KAQ inside the SS but outboard of the emergency blanket/vapor barrier. The combination of SS and KAQ provides for some very comfortable sleeping well down into the 20's.
