Thermolite or silk liner? What kind of liner?

[NeedItCheaper]

I use a 4ib wool blanket as a backup liner if it gets too cold. I was wondering what you guys would choose for some extra warmth?


SeaToSummit Thermolite(25f) liner, or a silk cocoon liner?


Or some other thing I have not consider?

Silk is very nice and breathy, I've gotten very good results from my silk liner. no idea what the thermolite liner is like though. I really dislike moisture next to my skin, so I use the silk liner to break it up in taffeta lined bags. it doesn't add much actual warmth, but adds to the comfort. a polar-fleace liner would add warmth, and there are a few that can be had for fairly cheap.

What temps are you planning to camp in? The thermolite adds considerably more warmth than the silk, but is quite bulkier.

Just looking bang for the Size&Weight so to speak. Generally I'm in upper 20's(f). But record lows in the areas I backpack in the winter are below 0(f), so I was looking at backups.

Doesn't matter a whole lot as of now. I have the Thermolite on it way in the mail. Anyone have something they think is superior and similar Size&Weight?
