I am wondering if anyone is willing to share their experience with the basic temperatures encountered (really just concerned on the low end) for the AT in GA and NC. Time frame is mid March through April. I can cover sleeping options down to 0* being from the Northeast. My initial pack load takes into account being able to handle well below 20*, but from the poking around I have been able to do, it seems like the temperatures in the mountains don't normally go that low in the time frame I am looking at. Would be nice to swap out for a 20* setup right out of the gate, however I am able to carry the bulkier/heavier items if it means making sure that I am warm at night. Any experience/opinion on this part of the trail at this time would be appreciated.
TIA.
