Received my HH SS from DirtWheels yesterday so had to set it up and give it a run in the backyard.

My son and I set up both our rigs (I have the HH Exp Deluxe and he has the HH Scout). It was quick and easy to connect the SS to my Exp.
I have to admit, I was skeptical as to if the SS would keep me warm, but willing to try it. Just seems to be so many options for an underquilt and they can be quite pricey, so when I saw Dirtwheels was selling his SS, I was excited to buy it from him. I got the overcover from him to, but decided to forego using that as I thought it would be overkill for last night's weather.
Bottom line is that it got down to 35 degrees last night. In the SS I had the OCF pad and for good measure, tossed a fleece blanket in as well. Slept with just at 40 degree bag covering me like a top quilt. Woke up in the middle of the night once and the only thing that was cold was my face.
Must say I am pleasantly surprised and ready to go to Yellowstone!
