Great review

[@thruhikertv]

Now I really have to work it out cause man that's straight impressive!

[@scottbutler1561]

Nice loadout. Why do you have a sleeping pad and inflator if you are using an under quilt? Are there shelters on the trail as well?

[@lifthearth]

Scott, 1) it’s the most comfortable and warm experience in the world to use both pad and underquilt (even more comfortable than a plush pillow top mattress at home; 2) probably not necessary to have both above 55°F but is a bit of a belt and suspenders approach to warmth below 55 because I’ve experienced some cold spots using the pad alone. 3) it does allow me to go to the ground in a pinch; 4) I’d use the thermarest Uberlight in a ridgerunner every time - It’s not camping at all, it’s like floating in a luxury hotel. You just have to try the Uberlight with a bridge hammock. It would be so hard to go back to a hammock only without the Uberlight not to mention sleeping on the ground is like three leagues below Hades. Worth the extra 12 ounces carrying the pad every time. Just my humble opinion and experience.

Wow, nice mod! Do you have a link for your shoulder strap modification? I looked through your vids but I can’t seem to find it.

[@lifthearth]

Mike, you can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5i4nqBnapKFl6s

👍🏻 Thanks!

I don’t know how, but you got it to work. Question is, would you do it again or use a bigger pack?

[@lifthearth]

I could do it again. No need for a bigger pack. I do however like the LiteAF packs better. Just wish I had one of those cool zipper pockets on my LiteAF packs…

[@barondavis5692]

Lifthearth Makes sense. Zpacks has a stick on pouch that goes on the inside of a pack.

[@lifthearth]

@@barondavis5692, Ooo, thanks for the tip! I’m going to check that out.

[@lifthearth]
