Some sort of lost...
Relatively warm, yeah. I mean it is still a tent after all. But with a warm sleeping bag it's cozy and the inside temp is definitely higher than outside. Actually I woke up sweating on mount hood last week and didn't have a problem getting out from the sleeping bag to get dressed. It retains more heat than sleeping in my old VW van at least!
My wife has been comfortable in it when it's cold, though she is always colder than I (I'm a warm sleeper).
We have been using a Teton sports mammoth queen sized sleeping bag rated at 0 degrees. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000F38YHI/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?pc_redir=1385444895
The bag is massive, so I have unzipped it and usually only bring the larger half to cover up with. It is very warm. Underneath we use two cheap fleece sleeping bags that I bought at dicks that zip together to make a queen sized fleece bag, that unzips on each side. So far this has worked really well for us. It allows some flexibility if its too hot or cold, whether I'm solo or my wife is with me, and it isn't confining like mummy bags. The full bag really takes a ton of space if you carry it, and is nearly impossible to stuff back into the sack in a confined area. Even one side is too thick to close in the top.
Sounds like you had a great summer! I spent 4-5 weeks out at one point, but once I had to come back home to fly to work it became a pain to get too far away again in my normal time off.
