I know from experience with kingsnake eggs that constant high temps are bad, but high temps for a few hours a day does not hurt them. I had mine go to close to 90 deg for a few hours a day for a good week or two with no problems. Probably similar for hognose, not sure. But 85-86 deg is not even what I would call dangerous for one day, so you are fine.

I agree with pike that lower temps are just safer overall, less chance of accidents.
