depends on the rating of your bedding, how warm/cold you normally sleep, and what layers you sleep in.
Sorry, 0 degree mummy bag, fleece top n bottom, lighter wool sweater, wool socks, stocking cap
I would be fine into at least the low teens with that setup -- but I sleep warm - so long as I was under a tarp to keep the wind off.
With reference only to UNDER insulation, 5/8" would be good to below 0 for me.
Since I retired, some times I stay awake all day, some times all night.
Awesome, looks like I should have no issues getting out next weekend if I can find the time.
I could certainly do below 32F with that set up since I sleep warm but I would still try it in my own back yard first. For me it takes a bunch of fiddling around before I get everything just right.
Well in that case, worst case scenario is that you get to cold and have to drive back home and pick up some stuff. However, with a 0 degree bag I wouldn't be worried at all. Just make sure you bring a couple other layers and if you need them, put them on.
