I'm thinking of going on an overnighter when I finish up my tax class this week. It has been hot and stuffy this past weekend and the weather going to be the same this weekend. I'm thinking instead of the sleeping bag I might take a quilt and a small fleece blanket for good measure. Given the humid nights we have in the south and I will not be higher than 5,700 feet above sea level, the quilt should be more then sufficient to keep me warm, agree? I figure I could roll my quilt up and it will/should fit nicely into my sleeping bag compartment in my backpack. Anyone else takes quilts with them instead of sleeping bags in the summer months?
