    I made the KAQ as instructed here. Love it. Very comfortable and warm. A little big on my hennessy, but I've finally gotten the kinks worked out. A little heavier than I liked at 1lb 11oz with stuff sack and everything, but still feels lighter than the thermarest, and it keeps me warm without making my back sweat like crazy all night like a pad did.

    I use the KAQ New River underquilt and the KAQ Owyhee top quilt. Both are well made and warm. They just don't compress as well as down.

    I had a winter Potomac. It was Super warm and fit perfectly on my HH Exp. I used it later on a WBBB since they are very similar in shape.

    Note: These quilts use synthetic materials that still insulate when wet, but they don't compress as small as down quilts.

    I use the New River on my DB72 and love it. My wife uses the Potomac on her HH Explorer, and has been very happy with it so far...snugs up with the tieouts perfectly.

    I have the New River UQ and the Owyhee TQ, love them both and taken them down to 8 degrees, but then I'm a warm sleeper. I'm working on a down quilt so the New River is gooing to my son for use with his HH Expedition.
