[pct-l] Nunatak Arc Alpinist
I'll 2nd what Matt said about the Alpinist. I got mine with 2 oz
overfill & the epic fabric. I used mine last year on my JMT thru hike
& if the stars align correctly will be using it on a PCT thru hike in
2006!

It may be a little late for this year's thru hikers to pick one up but I certainly reccommend looking into it if anyone is looking for a down quilt. It looks great upon initial inspection. The design is solid and the stitching looks clean. Mine weigs in at 20 oz. That is phenomenal for a 20 degree rated system. For those who are really paying attention, the standard weight is 18 oz. I had mine made with 2 oz overfill for $20. Because they are a custom manufacturer the options for modification are endless. Perhaps most importantly, Tom Halpin at Nunatak was very responsive to any concerns or questions that I had and I was impressed overall with the quality of service.
