It is a little huge...lol. I've learned a lot from gram counters, but my pack runs 50-65 easy.
Over the weekend I tried packing my quilts loose under my hammock in a compactor bag and it seemed to work really well, with no loss of loft that I could perceive. I don't know if its a good long term solution though.
