    Clark NX-250 / Warbonnet question

    I'm interested in a warbonnet travel sock. Does anyone know if the sock will fit nicely on the Clark?

    Doesn't your Clark have a weather shield?

    Clark's do have a weather shield, but if using an under quilt, a UQ protector can be a good friend.

    An under quilt by itself would be a lot easier to use, lighter, and cheaper if that's what you're looking for.

    Hey guys, yes it has the weather shield. And i have the UQ but was woundering if a hammock sock would give me an extra layer of warmth and protection.

    The last time i had my NX-250 out it was -5 F and with the weather shield closed i had water dripping on my face from all the moisture. Warmth wasn't an issue at all with my 0 degree incubator and a 20 degree REI down bag as a top quilt. I would imagine that if you added another layer (the wind sock), this issue would be doubled seeing as how the hammock would breath that much less

    The weather shield on the clark does a great job all by itself.

    If you're looking for more warmth i'd start looking at a lower rated bottom/top quilt for your setup.

    Just my 2 cents
