Thanks for the replies. Will send some PMs.
I do appreciate the input on an alternative.
I have looked at the Guidos site. I searched on TG and read where some say Guidos is more comfy to sit in.
However,it looks more bulky and is heavier. That is a more significant issue than hours of comfort for me. I will have to hike in, and will need to carry a pack with some essential gear, (and of course on the way out I will be carrying a critter too
). So I was thinking maybe less is more in this case...
