You mentioned that you are going to Finland - where roughly - i.e. mountains, forest, etc etc. Also if you have been given any "guide" temperatures that would be good too?

What shelter will you be staying in, and do you have a liner or a bivi bag?

Whatever bag you use and the issue arctic bag should be ok, make sure you have a very good sleeping mat.
I use an Exped down mat rated to -40 when I am in Lapland but it is thick and may not fit in your bivvy bag with a large sleeping bag. I use the mat outside my issue bivvy bag otherwise you loose loft due to compression of the sleeping bag.
