    3rd hang, 15º in the snow in New-Mexico (vid)

    Hey all, Spent the night with my brand new HG Phoenix 0º, the actual low was 15º. This was my first winter night and my 3rd night all together hanging in the woods. The Phoenix is great and really easy to use/adjust. Got a little chilly here and there but absolutely no cold spots from the UQ. Feel pretty happy about the whole thing (Even though I don't show it on the video! Early morning is not my shining moment!).
    Thanks to all for inspiring people to hang in the air....

    Anyway, here is a video so nobody can tell me it didn't happened

    Did the cold come from the bottem or where you just cold in general?

    It's not procrastinating, its proactively delaying the implementation of the energy-intensive phase of the project until the enthusiasm factor is at its maximum effectiveness.

    So Many projects...
    So Little Time..

    No, was nice and toasty, woke up at three to do my thang, and was overall a little cold, so added a very light fleece sweater and some insulated pants. Actually more cold on top than bottom. Feet got cold around 6:30am

    Did you go anywhere special for this trip? Or just near your house?

    This was just a cold hang test, that IS my house, or more accurately my yard.
    The joy of living in the woods!
