Newbie needs help

Thanks for that! Very helpful.. do you know where I could get a cheap synthetic underquilt from? Also, sorry but what is a 'rip stop' and where do you get it... assuming it is a fabric similar to what is used for the weathershield? Thanks!

Look no further than here. http://www.mollymacpack.com/new.html

I own one (among others) and this would be my first choice for Costa Rica. They are super light weight and have kept me warm down to the 40s. They are synthetic so would be good for the rainy tropics. It's my go to summer quilt which can easily be supplemented with a pad if the temps dropped below your comfort level.

What kind of temps are you anticipating?

Hi Miguel. Thank you! Hopefully I won't need an underquilt for this trip but wanted to know about where people go them in case I need it for cooler weather uses for other times. Temps should not drop below 60 degrees.. Thanks for the link!!!
