Enlightened Equipment Conundrum 20°

The Enlightened Equipment Conundrum 20° is a single-person hybrid quilt and sleeping bag in the Wide cut, built for colder nights on multi-day trips where extra room matters more than shaving the last grams. Comfort is rated to 0°C and the limit to -6°C, close to the 20°F the name references. Fill is 580g of 850-fill-power duck down with a hydrophobic treatment that slows moisture pickup on trips where the bag cannot be aired out daily. Construction uses vertical box baffles and a differential cut — the outer shell is cut larger than the inner liner so the down can loft fully instead of compressing at the seams. The trapezoidal footbox keeps feet warm without adding bulk; shell and liner are 10D nylon taffeta with a DWR finish. At 1050g in Wide, this is heavier than a typical minimalist quilt, but the extra weight buys interior space and a full accessory set: stuff sack, storage sack, pad loops, a one-year warranty, RDS-certified down, and PFC-free treatment. It suits hikers who prioritize sleep comfort over minimum base weight.
