If it helps for ideas on what you might need... my gear list for backpacking (I dont backpack hunt): ULA Circuit Pack Therm-a-rest NeoAir Xtherm Pad Nemo Salsa 15° Bag Exped Air Pillow Big Agnes Copper Spur UL1 Tent BRS 25g Titanium Stove Toaks 750ml Titanium Cup Outdoor Reserarch Down Jacket and Rain Gear Merrell Moab Mid Gore Tex Boots For Clothes I wear Cabelas Guide Wear Shirts and Pants 100% Nylon SPF 40 Meals - Mountain House / Packit Gourmet Sawyer Squeeze Water Filter Smart Water Bottles for Holding Water Cascade Mountain Trekking Poles Morakniv Companion Knife Coast Headlamp Lighter or Flint and a few Trioxane bars Im probably forgetting stuff, but those are the basics

Dont get it wet whatever you do. Down + water = cold night.

This is going over my head a bit. Are you saying you don't use the quilt underneath of you and only on top? Or that the quilt does not compress as much as the down? Yes the quilt just goes on top of you (and sides tucked in). Usually there is a foot box to keep feet inside. Just make sure if you go with a quilt to get a quality, warm pad.

Also, if you are a side sleeper like me and want a down bag, check out the Nemo bags. Specifically made for side sleepers. Highly recommend! Another good source for gear reviews is Outdoor Gear Lab. Great real world tests and reviews. They review everything

My thermarest NeoAir Xtherm Max cost $180 but worth every penny. Warmest ultralight pad in the market. Buy once, cry once. Weighs a pound, 5.7 r value and packs down to the size of a can of beer. 👍

There is also a YT channel, Darwin on the Trail who reviews budget backpacking items that are quality and lightweight. Check out his budget videos

Save for quality gear. When I first started backpacking, I bought budget friendly heavy items. It wont take long for you to want to shed weight and that equals $$$$. I went from a base weight of 31 lbs to 17 lbs but it wasnt cheap. I use a ULA Circuit Pack. Down bag, Thermarest pad and Big Agnes tent. Your cook kit is a good custom way to shave weight. A simple alcohol burner with a titanium cup will do just fine. The weight savings is worth the price IMO. Watch shugemery on youtube. Best backpacker on the interweb. Especially with stove tests and reviews.

I had one in my pool last summer. It was huge, when I scooped it out of the water with the leaf net it broke the plastic net.

Hey Junior, a bit off topic but I assume that I can get my 2 year free replacement strings at the Mesa shop if I purchased from the QC location? Thanks!

dang. I bought my 2017 Halon 32 from there.

treat it with 303 UV Protectant and itll be good. Works on my outside stored RV for years.
