Hybrid System

A buddy of mine is working to leave the ground (yea!) and he and I are going backpacking in 3 weeks. We are working on getting him a hammock. But we will be out in weather in the 30s, so insulation is a concern.

I have a UQ for me, and an extra, which I use for the summer, a Jarbridge River with 3 oz climashield. I have taken the JR down to 41°, but I suspect we will be below that. I am considering picking up a Molly Mac Gear IX insert to supplement the JR.

How much lower should I be able to go with one IX insert?

BS:
If you need I can let you borrow one of my KAQ New River UQ's. With the single layer I would say closer to freezing but YMMV. Let me know If I can help since you will be close to the area.

Thanks BBG! I will keep it in mind.
