Greetings. I am new to the forum.
I have two choices for sleeping bags:
-- Northface -7C/20F 3.2 lb. bag or
-- Snugpak Traveller 7C/45F (comfort) 0C/35F (extreme) 1.8 lb. bag and a Snugpak silk liner.
Use would be early-mid February to early-mid March, St. Jean to Santiago.
I tend to sleep cold(er than my wife) and plan to wear capilene or fleece top and bottom and am not bothered sleeping in a fleece hat.
I'd prefer the lighter weight and integral insect netting of the Snugpak, but have no experience with albergues.
I would be grateful for recommendations from someone who has walked at this time and experienced the range of normal and more extreme temperatures in albergues.
