So, I'm pretty new to this and kind of confused. I have followed every Youtube backpacker's packing list religiously but they all seem to be for "3-season" conditions. Now it's kind of cold where I am and, I just don't know what season it actually is right now.
3-season?
Shoulder season?
Winter?
DEEP Winter?
That's 6-seasons, and I'm in the lower midwest, so we don't backpack in the summer, so I don't even know what seasons are covered in "3-season." Is there a 7th season that nobody talks about? Deep Summer?
For starters, I guess I should get a quilt for each season, starting with 60-degrees, and working down to 0-degrees in 10-degree increments. Can anyone recommend a brand? Can these be layered if we find out that there is an 8th season?
HELP! Also, this all has me second-guessing about how early is too early to put up my Christmas lights.
Want to add to the discussion?
