I would highly recommend you check out enlightened equipment. I have two of his custom built quilts (he adds length for me) and I love them. I have used them a great deal this year and have found them to be of the highest quality. I am not sure where in ca you camp but I have found I am able to use his 40 degree most nights as long as I pack my down jacket. I have had it drop into the thirtys twice on me and didn't freeze. Of course the 20 degree I have is great to and only a few ounces more and honestly probably the better choice for one year round quilt.
Yea. I'm 99.9% sure I'm gonna get their revelation apex 20 xlong. And a neo air xtherm . That should do me well during the at least though November's and most december nights here.
Need to order soon though i see that got a backlog. And who knows how all these manadtes with Ccrona will affect them.

My 4 year old help me set it up last night. She wanted to do the stakes. I'm. Happy with it for the money. Prob eventually upgrade to SO but this will do for now.
Real test will be this season in the field.
I think next year I'll put a SO half nest in it.
I got my plan got quilt and pad. My first tipi. It easier than i thought.. but it will take little practice to get the inital stakes in right spot.. thanks guys.
