Here is my current gear list. I used it recently in the Shenandoah NP with one night in low 30's and another night in low 20's. I was comfortable both nights. Note I only took both pads because I thought the low temps might be pushing my bag's limit. Do you see any problems or have any suggestions.
Thanks, Jamie
