For a 3 season sleeping bag it is best to buy for cold. Its a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. Thats why its smart to buy a bag thats rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35. Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than 10.
