I finally have enough in my piggy bank for a good quality UQ. With winter coming, I was eyeing a nice 0 degree UQ. I like the idea of having one piece of equipment I COULD use for all situations if I had to. Someday I figure I will try my hand at making an UQ, so I might make a warmer weather quilt eventually...but maybe not. Right now my only UQ is a DIY Insultex monstrosity that gets me down to 40 degrees if I dress really warm. It is only 3/4 length, so I'm thinking stacking isn't really an option, right?
So, my question is, since the 0 degrees are realistically not THAT much heavier than other UQ's, if that's what I go with, will it work for a 50 degree night? How much of a pain is it to loosen it for venting to adjust for temps, carry the extra bulk, etc.?
I'm a cold sleeper, but even I end up kicking off the 0 degree TQ I have on a summer night (I'm in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, so "summer" is a relative term).
