Hello all, great forum. Been doing lots of research here and want to express much appreciation in advance...

I am planning doing the HMW northbound with my daughter. I am limited to end of August to mid September 2018 to do the trip and am planning for 8-10 days. Is there any special considerations during this time or section I should be aware of? Also, looking at the temperature trends in that time(roughly high 30's to mid 70's, i think), I am looking at 20 degree bags such as the BA Skeeter 20, Nemo Sonic, etc...am I looking at the correct range?

We are both in pretty good shape, I'm 52 yoa retired Army and she's a 22 yoa firefighter/paramedic....should be a life changing adventure

Many more questions to follow I'm sure...

Thx and be safe
