I am using a exped synpad sleeping pad that is very insulated. I am looking for a lightweight bag that can do three seasons. I assume this bag you just flip as one side has more insulation that the other. Has anyone experienced this bag in the field. I am guessing that I could experience temps in the 30-40 range at Philmont in summer. Does anyone have Philmont experience and would this bag be ok for July?

3 days up in the mountains of PA during November. It rained for 3 days straight and in the mornings there were 8" icycles hanging off my motorcycle. The overnight low was roughly 0 degrees. I slept with the 40 degree side up (I think, is the red side up the 40 degree side?) on an exped synmat 9DLX inside a Walrus tent. I was just wearing a long sleeve t-shirt (it was cotton, I know I know)but I was wearing insulated pants and a beanie on my head, I was actually hot all those nights....

You are correct, you simply flip the bag over to get the insulation weight you want, I use a 4 season thermarest, in a REI 3 season dome. I have used in it in weather down to 10 and been perfectly content for 4 nights. In short I love the bag.
