I see posts with people still trying to manipulate a sleeping pad, even with the underquilt, so my questions are:
1. For those who have bought an underquilt, are you leaving the sleeping pad at home?
2. For those who still keep the sleeping pad for extra warmth and/or for sleeping on the ground/shelters when necessary, could you put the sleeping pad between the underquilt and hammock for the extra protection, without the hassle of having it directly under you inside the hammock? I haven't seen this suggestion (that's not to say it hasn't been made) and it seems logical to me, so I wonder if anyone's tried it or has a reason why it wouldn't work... :-?
I have the REI Sub-Kilo 20* bag, the JRB Nest and 8x8 tarp for my HH Ultralight A-Sym, and a Thermarest (which I may or may not bring... ).
