    0* UQ - 49" x 80", draft collars, 18oz of Resist down
    20* TQ - 55" x 78", 17oz of Resist down
    Material: Gray M50 all around (matches the Dangerbird's Gray M50 end caps nicely).

    Yet more down - Black Rock hat (thanks for tip, Johnny), Black Rock mitts, GooseFeet booties (overstuffed), Marmot Quasar jacket, WM Flash pants. Weatherproof covers for mitts and booties; rain/snow shell top and bottom.

    Someone hand me a lobster; I'm down and I can't get up.
    Jeez.. its sounds like you raided my closet!!!

    those flash pants are the bomb. Feel like your in a science fiction movie wearing them but function over fashion any day in my book.
    Gotta love the downy goodness.

    Is this a 10 year old boy friendly event?? I was thinking about bringing my 5th grader son along, we have done plenty of hammocking together before and he is a wannabe AT thru-hiker and Bear Grylls fan......

    Updated spreadsheet.

    That is good to know. I have a 14 year old that I may consider bringing if we have more youth attending.

    OK great so he may have some company. How old are your guys Nighthauk?

    We will try and get a couple of winter nights hanging in the yard to make sure he knows what to expect and is able to keep warm in the cooler weather.

    I have 3 Boys 15, 13 and 7. We will most likely see the younger two and my wife. She is interested in the food. Lol

    I'd love to bring my son. But, he refuses to sleep in any temperature less than 60* if he doesn't have to. Food wise I think I'll bring London Broil, one can never have to much meat
