I'm planning on starting early March for a NOBO thru. Right now I have a good quality 30* sleeping bag but I don't feel that it's going to be adequate. So, rather than shelling out more big $$$ for a 0, 10 or 20 degree bag I thought I'd just get some good down pants and down booties.
So my question is, wouldn't wearing a down parka, down pants and booties essentially make a 30* bag into a 10 degree bag?
Is sleeping in down clothes not recommended because of moisture issues?
Putting my $$ into some down pants and booties seems like the better choice. At least I could wear them around camp when it's freezing and not have all my down in a sleeping bag not being used.
