[pct-l] warmer

[JohnDRandall at aol.com (JohnDRandall@xxxxxxx)]

I tried a liner once and got tangled up so bad I thought I'd have to pee just 
for the possibility I'd be able to loosen something up so I'd be able to get 
out of my bag.  As far as warmth goes, I'm now leaning toward the thermarest 
CampRest, something I carried in my pre-Ray days.  If you want comfort, take 
the Caddy.  Of course, that's an age thing.  I read with interest the comments 
about the 3/4 thermarest lite.  I agree.  It sucks.  I've had two of them on 
non-threatening PCT section hikes and by daybreak they're nothing but fold-up 
rubber products, no more comfort than a natural stealth site, no more water 
protection than a mylar ground cover.   Leave the 3/4 at home and save the space 
in your pack.   So next year in No. Yosemite I'll be out there with my G4 pack 
and a CampRest, both about the same size.
