    Franken-sniveler Underquilt, Golite Ultralite quilt

    In preparation for and to help fund our upcoming thru, we're simplifying and letting go of some great gear. I'll be posting throughout the weekend. All prices include shipping in the lower 48, and the first one to post the magic words gets it.

    DIY Frankensniveler UQ x 2 - Created out of one JRB Rocky Mountain Sniveler (long version), I fashioned two high loft, single digit temp underquilts, complete with head/foot cinch adjustment as well as side channels for sliding the quilt fore and aft.

    I used Sgt Rocks shock cord troughout for the suspension, with Zing It rounding out the foot end to save weight.
    Each quilt measures 44" wide/46"long. I'm 5'10" and it covers me from the top of my neck to the middle of my hamstrings. My wife snuggles into this past her knees. Each quilt weighs 16 oz. $ 175 each

    The Golite quilt has sold.

    ONLY ONE FRANKENSNIVELER LEFT!

    Yes, it has cinches on both ends as well as channels on either side for sliding the quilt to and fro. In the photo of the corner tab, the green/yellow shockcord is the cinching end and the blue runs along the side channel.

    Thanks. And they sure are warm. You'd be hard pressed to find a warmer UQ for this price. Get one before they're gone!

    Alright, I'll take one of the Frankensnivlers. My idea is to use both my Greylock 3 and this quilt when it gets super cold for a full size winter ish combo.
