[QUOTE="woodwurx, post: 1429223, member: 104704"] I’ve been trying to lighten the load on my total pack weight and have decided to make the switch from a mummy bag to a sleeping quilt. My current synthetic bag with its fleece liner is a whopping 7lbs 5oz. By making the switch, I figure I can shave off 3-5 lbs. I’ve been looking at the custom build Enlightened Equipment Revelation quilt. I can choose between the treated 850 down or the climashield synthetic fill? They both have their pro’s and cons as far as weight and durability go. I’m leaning towards the down fill for it’s lighter weight and warmth, but I’m just worried about the effects of moisture from rain or sweat. I elk hunt southern Colorado every year and it seems to rain every other day. I just can’t make up my mind on what fill to use and want to hear any experiences or thoughts on your quilt fill? Thanks [/QUOTE]
