Spidennis,
You didn't use any other kind of underinsulation with it? Just the wool blanket? Very cool.
Tom,
A tarp? That's one I had never thought of.

oh no, i had a pad and sb in there with me, but I was much too warm! I wanted to try shedding stuff to see what I can get away with, but wouldn't you know it, the weather got better, dang it! this is a tool in my bag of tricks that I'll be willing to use though when the time comes around again.

thats my point you once you start sweating in them or on them you will be wet the liquid that gathers on the surface will form a vapor barrier
regardless in this application it would not work cause the fibers on a woolen blanket and very tough and would migrate thru tyvek anyway thats why most old wool comforters have cheese cloth inside it help contain it
