This allows me to very comfortably get into subzero Fahrenheit temps, especially with the underquilt stacking. The quilt suspender helps immensely with centering the second underquilt and the underquilt protector helps with any gaps. In the summer, I focus on the hike more than the camp, but I find there's something special about processing wood and building a fire in the winter. Plus, all the wood processing helps keep me warm.
