Rack, I've got both the Renaissance and the North Twin. When I camp in the mountains I use the Renaissance. If I were heading to Grande Cache during sheep season, I'd likely take the North Twin, 'just in case'... I hate being too warm and sleep in Smartwool long underwear. A silk liner supposedly increases the warmth factor by a few degrees, but I've yet to try one. I doubt you'd freeze in long underwear and a liner with the Renaissance, though. Good to -10 for me.

I don't know if ID bags are the ULTIMATE, but for the price they cannot be beat.

Great price is right!!! I ordered my Renissance for $262 CDN shipped.....it should be here this week.

It was a tough decision on the NT vs the Renissance....I'm thinking I made a good choice and should be flexible enough for all sorts of weather...

Get the size 'small' Kifaru stuffsac for it and you've got yourself a heck of a set-up.

Around $45 bucks.

Is that what you have for your Renissance?

Any pics of how it fits and how small it compresses in the 'small' one?

Finley and I have followed the same path.. Wiggy's is a great bag but you have to compress it and it still takes up a lot of room in your pack.. The Marmot H. is light, warm and it packs down to the size of a small loaf of bread.. Big Plus...
