Used the Palisade on the AT in 2016, where it was more than needed, and still picks it over their WM AstraLite for trips without freezing temperatures. Finds it snugs better with a better balance of feel, durability and breathability in the fabrics, and doesn't bother with the straps.
“For most trips where I don’t expect freezing temps I pick the palisade. It snugs better, and the fabrics seem a little better. Right balance of feel/durability/breathability. I don’t use the straps for either.”
