Enlightened Equipment - Revelation Sleeping Quilt

I’m well over 1000 hiker miles over a few years with a 10F EE enigma quilt and love it. To each their own, though.

I bought my partner an Enlightened quilt because I was so thrilled with mine. They've gotten more use from theirs than I have mine

I have about 100 nights on my enlightened equipment long wide 20 degree quilt and still love it. Well worth the investment

Love my Enlightened quilt. Wish I had read the care instructions first. Hand wash only. Ugh.

Get an enlightened equipment quilt, best decision I've ever made--I've been using a 5 C one for summer rainforest/coastal alpine, and just ordered a -12 C during their sale (sorry, ya missed it!) for going to Jasper this summer. By far the best quality and everything sleeping bag thingy I've ever used, and much prefer quilts over bags now. I personally would buy once buy right and stay far away from Chinese mass made garbage that could degrade within a couple trips with no support or real warranty or contact info.

Your bag is heavy. I have an EE 10 degree long/wide quilt that is 1.66 lbs so about a pound lighter than yours. It cost me about $450 so you don't need to spend $1000 for sure. You can for sure save some weight there.

I've done winter overnights in the Whites where it got to -20F. I wouldn't use a quilt if you put a gun to my head, and I love my EE Revelation long/wide. I want to be able to cinch down everything so only my nose is exposed if it gets super cold. If the 0 degree bag still has loft (sounds like maybe not) I'd start there. I've winter camped with a quilt and in truly marginal conditions an accidental draft would be - sub optimal. I want to safeguard every BTU I generate when it's that cold outside and I'm pushing the limits on my gear.

I've used a 10 degree Enlightened Euipment down to the teens fairly comfortably, provided a quality pad and decent site selection. I've used a layered quilt setup down to -15 rather comfortably as well. Will it work for you? I don't know. But you probably won't die if you try it out.

It's overkill. But your problem is the Switchback. If you're a cold sleeper you need an inflatable with minimum R3. If you're still cold after upgrading your pad, sell the 20º EE and get either a 10º EE or another 10º quilt. I sleep cold too and did the trail with EE Revelation 20º but I carried a Sea To Summit Etherlight pad with R3.2 and when it was still cold I slept in my puffy and base layers. you might also look into ultralight options for sleep accessories like down booties or a down sleep balaclava/hood
