So, I've had my eye on the Montbell Super Stretch Down Hugger bags for awhile now. I need a good 20-degree bag -- one that I will likely use on a thru-hike for the colder months. I hope to hike Southbound and start sometime in mid - late May. I am a cold sleeper, and the "comfortable" temp ratings on the 2 bags I am trying to choose between are 16-degrees and 25-degrees.
Seems to me like I should opt for the 16-degree bag, but I've read posts by others about how their Montbell bags ended up being "too much" for their needs, etc. and I was just curious to hear the opinions of those who have experience with Montbell bags. Should I get the 16-degree bag or should I opt for the 25-degree bag since I really won't be cold weather camping much other than what I encounter on my thru-hike?
(Please refrain from attempting to convert me to hammock camping ... )
