Nest question / Poll

Just a quick question to see how most people are using the nests. Curious if there would be a need / desire for a nest sized generously for one person that could maybe fit two in a pinch

I would buy a smaller lighter option in a heart beat. I have the LBO and have yet to use it with 2 people.

I'm about to pick up an LBO and nest. Only plan to use the nest with the wife. But then again, if I wanted to do some solo early season Cascades scouting, a lighter nest would come in handy for keeping the bugs off. Can you have one for sale by next week??? ;)

I guess I'm curious how much weight would the one person nest save? If it's not significant I wouldn't be interested. As is my 2 person nest seems pretty light, and I honestly wouldn't want it much smaller. I'm very inexperienced, just getting into the backpacking thing, so take my thoughts for what they are, but I feel that if the nest was much significantly smaller for one person, I might as well be in a bivy I would think...and if it's not significantly smaller I don't see a big enough weights saving.

More important to me is the bulk. If I can save space I'm for it.
