Ok, this is getting most annoying.
I setup last night in the back yard in my DIY 9' gathered end hammock.
Lost River UQ, 20 degree synth. bag as a top quilt, zipper pinned above my knees. Under my feet, in the bag was a 3' long piece of reflectix.
This hammock has an overcover made from 1.1 untreated ripstop, and I was under my 8x10 tarp with the doors closed...
Clothing: Thermal underwear, t-shirt, Fleece sweats, Thick wool/poly socks w/ fleece slippers.
I fiddled with the UQ, thinking I had it pulled too tight (per an earlier conversation with PG... Went to bed with a cup of hot cocoa in my stomach, and I was plenty warm before I got in.
I slept fine, and didn't have the problem with pressure on my calves like I did in the past (I loosened my ridgeline a bit.) but I woke up at around 6AM with my feet freezing. It was only 45 degrees last night. If I can't resolve this, I'll be stuck to Summer camping!
Anybody else have cold feet issues?
