I disagree with outandback regarding vapor barriers like ccf, etc... Not only are they effective insulators, the not breathable aspect eliminates the moisture from accumulating in the UQ. While it may not be noticeable since it is trapped within the down (or synthetic fibers) it is still there. The moisture will condense when it hits the dew point which is somewhere within the UQ's. No big issue for a weekend trip when one can air out their quilts when they get home, but on multi-day trips this can be a concern.
