"Because I'm a small human." I relate so much. 😂

Regarding the performance of your sleep system: more relevant than the pads, is the fact that you did not sleep on the ground, but rather on the wood planks that itself have a significant R value.

[@Terradrift]

Agreed! We've tent camped with this system in similar temperatures and saw the same performance, however. It just didn't get cold enough to feel that much of a difference between the shelter and ground with insulated pads.

Interesting, I would never cut stuff out lol, I am more then happy too hike with 19 pounds of gear :)

FYI a MH Airmesh hoodie is half the weight of your Houdini and performs shockingly well!

[@Terradrift]

Looks great!

I was just curious what bottle you are using with your water filter? I didn't see it in the lists and I couldn't quite catch what you called it in the video
