Hey everyone, I am planning a Southbound Thru-hike for 2015. For financial reasons I will only be purchasing One sleeping bag for the entire hike.
The two bag I am trying to choose between are:
-- Big Agnes Lost Lake SL 30 -- a 30 degree bag
-- Big Agnes Bellyache Mountain SL 17 -- a 17 degree bag
I know most people are going with 20 degree bags but I am going to get a good deal with big agnes so these are my most affordable options.
I figured if I go with the 30 degree bag I can supplement with a liner and clothes if it gets cold. This will allow me to split up my weight and not carry more than I need during warmer sections. My concern is whether the 30 degree bag will be warm enough for the whole hike.
If anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
