I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Astralite Quilt

Experience ultimate comfort on your outdoor adventures with the Western Mountaineering 26 Degree Down Astralite Quilt. This high-performance sleep system is designed for the most meticulous gram counters, offering superior craftsmanship and materials along with an unbeatable warmth-to-weight ratio.

The Astralite Quilt features 850-fill power European down that is untreated, allowing the large clusters and natural oils to provide optimal resistance to moisture while retaining maximum warmth. Its 12D shell and 10D taffeta lining not only ensure exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio but also offer remarkable compressibility.

Designed with a performance mummy shape, this quilt perfectly fits any mummy-shaped sleeping pad, providing even cushioning and eliminating any discomfort during the night.

Unlike other quilts with poor closure designs, the Astralite has a secure bottom system that closes snugly from shoulder to foot. Additionally, the top collar drapes around your shoulders, preventing any heat loss. The closure system is versatile and can easily accommodate a wide range of body shapes, making it suitable for the whole family.

Weighing just about one pound, this down quilt is incredibly lightweight. It compresses to the size of a water bottle, making it effortless to pack and ideal for any outdoor adventure.
