Do you have an out-building devoted to gear storage?  If not, you've got a ways to go yet!  (Mine is even air conditioned for working in there in the summer months.) dd

Why the Marmot DD? I'm sure you did your homework, just curious. I've always been a MSR man myself. I couldn't let "Big Agnes" flop in my solo MSR Zoid with it being a down bag. The Zoid has way to many miles. Something is bound to go wrong pretty soon in spite of the nickname I gave it (brick house). SOOoo, I picked up a "Hubba Hubba" 2 man last night to berth big bertha. Only 1 pound additional weight with all the features that I liked in the Zoid but with whole lots more room. Shoot, I could throw a party in there compared to my other tent.

An air conditioned out building for your stuff? How cool would that be!  [smiley=thumbup.gif] I got a good sized shop I hang out in all day but it sure isn't air conditioned. Good for you!  :)
