First Lite White Cloud

[SikaHuntaa]

Wanting some first hand experience from you folks on the White Cloud set. What you like and don't like.
Ideally would also like pictures to see how small they pack down, particularly the jacket.

Thanks

Curious about this jacket too. Appears to be quite a step up in warmth from the Uncompahgre and a bit less than the Chamberlin. Anyone use it this season?

Well I went ahead and ordered one to compare against the Chamberlin, and ultimately the Whitecloud went back.

Outer material, hood, pockets, zippers, beefier insulation and overall fit was just better on the Chamberlin. I run cold so I'm happy to finally own a legit glassing puffy to slip on over everything else (sized up) and stay comfortable during those sub 40 degree sits.

How did the white cloud compare to the chamberlain bulk wise? Is the chamberlain quite a bit puffier or were they similar? You think the chamberlain is warmer?

Chamberlin was a tad bulkier/heavier and I felt it would provide more overall warmth which is what I'm after. I have the FL Brooks, Uncompahgre and Sitka Down Lite and this thing is a beast in comparison.
