I'm planning to hike in MA and VT this September, and want to be prepared for the weather. I have only ever hiked the AT in PA, but as I have the opportunity to go out for several weeks, I figured I'd skip the rocks and enjoy the New England scenery and maybe even some Fall colors.
I recently purchased a 32 degree Western Mountaineering Summerlite sleeping bag (not cheap). Will that be warm enough? Should I get a silk liner?
What about cold weather clothing? What would you pack for this time of year?
Thanks for your input.
