    Cool weather gear test

    Supposed to get down to around 5-9 degrees tonight and I have my gear set up to see how it (I do) does.


    Wbbb xlc

    Superfly

    20 Incubator

    WM Kodiak as tq

    2QZQ uqp

    Reflectix between the layers.

    Thinking about a wool blanket over the ridge line as a quasi sock so to speak.


    Thoughts?

    Need to do some testing when its cool like tonight to improve on system for when its COLD this winter.

    Eat well before retiring to provide fuel for the night.

    Don't forget an empty bottle. You're going to hate yourself If you gotta get up in the middle of the night to have to pee.

    Well it was a warm cozy night, as the temps only got down to 15 deg.

    Still thinking a sock would be the bee's knees for this type of camping. Wondering if one of Dutch's would work or should a person take the plunge and get a canvas one from mollymacpac.com


    Has anyone used one before?
