Howie,
This sounds very interesting. I also have the problem of going back and forth so I would be interested in having an easier, quicker system.

Brian,
have you ever ordered the olive green silnylon from noah? Is it darker than the kelly...more like a forest?
thanks,
Scott
Well I got my replacement pair of Keens and they were fine walking around town, the house, etc. but when I went for a short hike I noticed some discomfort. The first pair caused pain in my heal, so...
Yellow Jacket I had the same problem with the Bites. My pinky toe was getting crushed. I just wrote a post in ultralight about the keens, so the jury is still out. I HOPE it was just the pair I got,...
Skink,
I can't give you a complete report, but I am hopeful. I would recommend the Newport H2s as they have nylon uppers vs. leather and will probably dry faster. I have a pair (size 13) they run...
Well it is something I just made last friday. Wouldn't say it is the "greatest" thing but pretty nifty nonetheless. We'll see how it actually works in the long run. It is a prefilter for water...
Two things that stood out were the 2lbs of sunscreen and the 2lbs of fuel.
Risk,
I really like the coffee stove concept. Did you ever try it with a tuna can or maybe even a higher corn type can? Just curious for those of us with narrower pots. I might give it a shot and...
1K for the lenses you mentioned I hope would be in the used market. I have the DSC-F707 currently among other cameras. Great camera, I must say. But there are some advanced features I would like...
That 1/4" padding sounds pretty good for the versatility/weight. I wonder if sandwiching some mylar between two layers would add to its Rvalue. and replace a third layer.
Also, I was reading...
Howie,
Don't know if you'll get this, but I was wondering if you went ahead and got that setup. Been thinking the same thing, but then saw the PRO-1 and may, I repeat "may" go that route for an all...
Okay so it looks like I will probably go the route of pad w/ underquilt for flexability. I added it all up and it looks like it is in the 5lb range for shelter and sleep system. To be honest I am...
CanoeBlue,
First of all thanks for sharing your design and features. I will probably write to Paul directly, but since you mentioned it here, I was wondering if the pattern will be for multiple...
Rock, an option to your last question:
"5. I also belive it would be possible to make the under-quilt with a head hole and collar so that the collar could plug the head hole. This way the...
I just got the explorer ultralight b/c I am 6'3" but haven't been out in it yet. I also just finished making a summer quilt that has approx 1.25" loft. It is similar to the one you mentioned some...
Thanks for the responses. I guess to clarify, I was wondering if anyone had made a down underquilt with aluminized tyvek instead of a nylon shell. If so, is there a benefit of extra weight (albeit...
Hello, I am new here and I am about to purchase a HH hammock. Doing my research has shone keeping warm can be a bit of a challenge. It seems an underquilt is quite the popular remedy. Are there...
