My summer kayak camping is done with a 3.5 lb hammock (large deluxe > model) and a tiny 1-2lb REI sleeping bag. I freeze my butt off when I do not use the pad for insulation. Temps below 45 are sure to give quite a chill. I have a 20 degree bag and sllep quite warm, too. Love my hammock but in the northwest I carry the pad.
