As it stands I have my thru base weight just over 8#.
Thats a SUL hammock setup with a summerlite bag, down UQ, bug net and an inflatable pad for shelters.
What I am stuck on is a jacket. Common sense say go with Synthetic, but saving weight with down would be nice.
Right now I have a 7.5 oz Stoic pull over down cardigan I just cant warm up to, a JCP puffer down jacket 11 oz, and a MYOG M90 climashield jacket that I made a while back at 15.5oz, with a combo of 2.5xp (sleeves), 3.6 XP and 5XP and super warm. That last CS jacket is now my goto warm jacket and way way warmers than either a thermawrap or patagonia micropuff but its not a trim cut IE its a bulky cut.
Will be carrying a down hood.
Also plan to make an IX insulation vest for an extra layer.
Right now I am stuck between buying a down Montbell Ex light at 7.5 oz, which I am thinking will not be warm enough or just biting the bullet and building another jacket only this time 2.1 Climashield Apex and a M50 shell which should come in at about 10-11 oz.
