The SUL pillow height dilemma

I use my buff as an eye mask.  Anyone try the Big sky with the buff around their head instead of the pillow?  Can’t see why it wouldn’t work to avoid carrying an extra buff

Anyone compare the comfort to the sea to summit pillows?

To amend my last post, there is pretty good neck support with the Big Sky. The center does dimple in.

Trying it with the buff over my eyes, I didn’t see much difference😁. Perhaps slightly more cushy and stable with the buff over the bladder. Either way, it stops direct contact with the plastic.

I think the S to S looks similar to the Exped where the sides of the Big Sky are more pronounced. Dimpled in the middle, it cradles my head pretty well.

My current pillow arrangement is:

• Pillow Strap from GGG
• Cheap Trekology Aluft pillow
• Tiny CCF sit pad

Put deflated pillow and CCF pad in Pillow Strap, then inflate pillow to desired thickness (usually about 3/4 full). Strap to sleeping pad and try to sleep.

Thanks for the real time check Terran.

Ben, good idea about the seat pad.  Shoulder season I find I need mine under my hip though to add warmth to the not as warm as rated r value older Nemo tensor pad

Thanks for the real time check

I enjoy the research. Any excuse for a nap.
