Hmm. Seems like the consensus is that I need some kind of insulation even in fairly warm weather. It really doesn’t seem like it would get that cold in the 70s, but if there is one thing I’ve learned, it’s that ignoring the voices of experience almost never ends well.
I’m thinking of bringing along an old thermarest air mattress for underside insulation. For topside insulation I was thinking a sleeping bag liner, plus an extra pair of socks, and a Patagonia nano puff jacket that I could spread over myself like a blanket, and maybe a poncho for another layer on top of that if needed. This way, I’ll have some insulation if it gets cold, but I don’t need to buy any new gear short notice since its all stuff that’s around for other uses. Does that sound like adequate insulation for the 65-75 temperature range?
