    MMG IX UQ at Hot Springs

    At Hot Springs, we tweaked the IX UQ to fit the Blackbird and the Switchback.
    Here's a video of Raw, SmithOBX and NotToWorry with the IX UQ on the Switchback.

    Thank you for watching!

    Very nice, as is the IX Jerry Chair.

    So, what is the story? How many folks used either the UQ or Jerry Chair as UQ, what were the temps, and how did y'all do?

    It was 60 degrees both nights. Thing1 used the single layer IX UQ, and I used the single layer Jerry Chair IX UQ. We were both toasty.

    One of our neighbors in a Hennessey Hammock borrowed a single layer Asym IX UQ on Friday night, and bought it on Saturday morning.

    Note that Thing1 and I both had plenty of top insulation. I have found that if you don't have enough on top, it will feel like you don't have enough on the bottom. I'm going to remember that when I make the first Molly Mac Gear IX Top Quilt.

    My friend Rick, that joined us over the weekend at the sehha, used his newly acquired IX UQ on his Hennessey, and loved it!

    He told me to tell you thanks again. Thanks!
