    Top Quilt Pack Size

    Trying to get an idea of the pack size of a 20* TQ. Did not see it in some vendors' web sites & search here turned up nothing.
    Any real life measurements out there?
    I need to ditch the old bag (sleeping bag - Mrs. Moment's a keeper) for something lighter and more compact.

    If it's down it should pack to roughly football size.

    I think I could get mine in a qt nalgene. If I really crammed it and didn't like it much.

    UGQ 20* TQ will comfortably fit in the provided 7X14 stuff sack and could go even smaller in a compression style stuff sack...

    Here's my 0* Incubator and Burrow for a comparative. See the 4 cup zip lock container beside.

    Thanks all for the pix & info. Next big decision is the vendor. Leaning towards HG's 900 fill that's about 2" longer than the UG quilt. Don't know that I can go wrong either way with a 20* regular size.
    Of course, if someone has a TQ they want to part with...

    Edit: done deal on a 20* from HG. Now have an old Ascente goose down bag which may have enough down left in it to make myself a new UQ (winter project).
