    First real night out with my ridgerunner :)

    It's gonna get down to 16f in Chicago tonight. Ridgerunner, spindrift, thermarest xtherm, and rei 20 degree bag. HG cuben hex too

    Hopefully I'll stay warm?

    The crinkling of the snow coming down on the tarp is quite pleasant!

    Sounds like you will be just nice warm and toasty.

    I hope you stay warm. I know you'll be comfortable. The RR is legit!

    It's standard width and 11 foot ridge. I'm going to set it up this week some time and get some measurements and have Adam add some more panel pulls to better suit the ridge runner. He said he do it free of charge

    Using my UGQ 20deg. quilts, I slept two nights in the low 20's in my ridge runner and slept quite warm. I admit I was concerned as the WBRR does not come up on the sides very high, but that worry was solved by my UQ which did give some side protection. I am not used to bridge hammocks, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well I slept.

    How easily does their quilt attach to the ridgerunner?
