better than expected
unless temp dips below 15F (of course). Only one night did I wake up shivering in this bag during my 7 day backpacking trip in the Smokies. Had on my base layer and 2 pair of midweight hiking socks and still cold. But in all fairness, pretty sure temp was close to 0F at Pecks Corner shelter cause girl thru-hiking next to me had a Big Agnes rated to 0F and she said she woke up kinda cold too. Bottom line, very warm 6 out of 7 nights, and cozy as long as within temp. rating. Love this bag!
