I'm broad shouldered ~59" girth and 72 1/4" tall.Also have bilateral hip replacements which are still a little tender...so I shift around a lot. Considering the Helium for light weight. But also the Big Agnes Mistral or Lost Ranger for space to move. Any suggestions? Use for spring/fall river trips and backpacking. I tend to sleep warm but don't want to spend too many more 20 deg nights in my 40 deg bag!

Last time I checked, Big Agnes sleeping bags don't have insulation underneath because they are intended to be paired with a down-filled insulating mat. If you roll around a lot, this could be an issue if rotate the bag. If your bag is securely attached to a sleeping mat, it probably won't be an issue, though. Just some points to consider about Big Agnes. But they make great gear.

I would take a look at the Marmot Trestles 15 Long X-Wide. It'll be a little heavier than this because it uses synthetic insulation, but there is a good amount of room while remaining fairly thermally efficient.
