What's everyone's favorite sleep system during archery elk.

Base camp for me is a 14x16 wall tent from Davis and back packing in is a mix of a bivy and tarp or Seek outside LBO based on weather expected. Rocking a VIAM quilt at the moment but changing that in the near future.

Xtherm pad, katabatic 22deg quilt, durstan Xmid 2 solid tent (2 of us sleep in it). I did a ton of research before ending up with this setup, and I wouldn’t change a thing after 80+ nights in it.

Do you guys always prefer quilts over sleeping bag?

Kifaru Tut floorless shelter, Xtherm pad, (Borah Gear bivy or MLD Duomid half nest) and a Western Mountaineering Badger 15* bag. Works perfectly for me every Sept during archery elk in CO

100%. Lighter weight, more comfortable, no issues with draft if you use a good pad attachment system. I personally see no downsides with a quilt.

Thank you all for your opinions.

My own queen sized bed… but I live less than an hour from my favorite trailhead.

But for backpacking I’ve liked my Kifaru Quilt and big Agnes Q core deluxe pad over a tyvek ground cover all under my Kifaru paratarp or Tut tipi.
