Finished it. I did the darts. I used it last weekend with forecast lows of 42. I was in a 45 degree down bag. Was a little chilly a couple times during the night in spots on the bottom and from the top as well. The next night, I cinced it up a little tighter and was fine, but lows were in the low 50s that night.
I was not real impressed with the Climasheild I received. I don't intend to name the vendor because I made no effort to resolve my concerns with them. Some layers were torn a little and it seemed to have been "stretched" in a couple spots in the middle and I could not work around it. In several spots, I could see through it to the floor. In the rest, I could not see through it at all. I added some cutoffs to a few spots and attached with a very light dose of spray adhesive on the parts I added.
This combined with inexperience in setup probably led to marginal performance. I wanted a 30 degree UQ, but most use will be 45+ here in GA, so no big deal. I don't do so well with posting pictures, but it's OD green and looks like the rest of them.
When I make my down UQ, I'll definitely post pics of that.
