    man that sure was one big black catepillar outside of your winter tarp. Oh no never mind that was you in your top quilt. Great video Shug as always, that made me cold.

    Stay warm!
    I have a fleece one that I wear.... ice all around the ice and nose! Fun.

    I use a balaclava over my mouth. I sometimes get a very dry mouth, but the balaclava keeps my mouth shut so it doesn't dry out. It also limits the frost generated by my breath.

    Thanks again for a great vid!

    Shug! a Warbonnet Top Quilt??????????? What? When? You get all the coveted stuff!!

    so video cameras work at -2F, good to know.

    Is there a glue that will adhere a patch/ring to a Speer Winter Tarp for pullouts??? There has to be something instead of sewing and sewing and sewing around and around and around in that circle---grip clips? OK they work I know but I like what you done for permanence.

    Winter yeti to -2F INCREDIBLE...I'd add an expletive to show shock and awe but this is a family forum but still -2F with the Winter Yeti! Truly remarkable...I've gone to 17F with a Winter Yeti but can't imagine -2F,,,,,,you sure you had nothing else under you???

    As always a wonderful video. You and Prof. Grizz are truly the masters....the iron chefs of hammockdom for sure.

    I've taken my winter Yeti to 5*F (my coldest hang). I felt that I still had room to go colder. Lots of range there too!

    Thanks for boosting my winter courage, Shug. From out here, a Native Son of the Golden West salutes you. I'm heading into my back yard tonight with le merle avec tous les accessoires for a bitter night. Fleece upon fleece, down over down, socksies on toesies, cap wraps and bunny suit...my goodness, its gonna get down to 50 degrees tonight---bitter I know, but thanks to your video and example, I'm bucked.

    Hey Shug,
    ya know, I watched this video several times and finally it came to me that Drumming-Shug looks alot like the nutcracker figurine on the top of my mantle piece over my fireplace....yep definitely looks like a Nutcracker. Can you crack walnuts in your mouth?
