    summer weight top quilt

    What's suggested for 60 degree nights? I have a Burrow, but it seems like overkill, even for me, who is always cold. Of course I want to keep the wt. as low as possible Most likely with those temps I'll have a bugnet , which will kill some of the breeze, and make me even warmer

    Thanks,
    Leigh

    Any summer 60* night can become 40* with an unexpected thunder shower, followed by a cold front and at elevation,

    Summer bags should be capable of 40*... Look for down bags/TQ at or below 16 oz...
