I'm literally posting this from top of the mountain. Just got done scouting for deer on an area where I saw a good typical on Saturday. Hoping to get some Phone Skope pics of him. He's about a 1,000 foot climb straight up from a road. This time of year, big bucks are only out for a little while in the morning and if you're lucky right at dark, so I don't want to hump this mountain twice a day hoping to get a look at him. I backpacked my new bed roll to the top and I've got it layed out in the sagebrush right now. Here's my first video of the system. I shot it about an hour ago.
Canvas Cutter is really best for horse packers, and road camps, but it's what I had in the truck and now that I'm laying on this 3-inch pad in the middle of a bunch of rocks, I couldn't be happier.

I slept super well on that 3" foam. Had to leave the bedroll zipper open until about 5am into it cooled down enough that I actually needed covered. Zips right up over those poles. Plenty of headroom and no condensation!

Got up at 6am (first light) and was glassing 10 minutes out of camp. Got hot fast and by 8:50 started thinking I was not going to see that buck, then there he was. Got some Phone Skope of that buck. He's pretty good

OMG! That sleep system looks crazy bulky and heavy. What's it weigh and what are the dimensions of the bivy rolled up?

WB, as it says in the lead, it's best for horse-packing and road camp. It's 7lbs and 32" wide. Approx 12" diameter rolled.

I started on post #2 for some reason. Saw it come off a pack and thought "WTF?!" What's it weigh?

The Canvas Cutter works well as a bag cover to keep it clean in a floorless tent. You can also see how the system rolls up into a carry-able

I just got an email from Seth at Canvas Cutter, "Free shipping until January 1, 2018 and we always ship priority mail, which means if you live in the U.S. you get your bedroll in 2-3 business days."

I'll have my full review on this product in the next few days. I'll post a link here.
