    Keeping Warm

    I ran across the video below and I found it very interesting and wanted to see what others thought.

    He talks about using an alpaca wool poncho draped over the Ridgeline to keep him warm.

    That'll help. There was another thread this week where a user used a fleece blanket in the same manor and if memory served me correctly raised the temps in the "cocoon" around 10 or more degrees.

    Good video. Thanks for sharing.

    A good hammock sock will do a good job as well.

    I like the old Costca double black diamond, over the RL, tucked into the UQP as a make shaft insulated top, at the lab not in the field
    Volcanoes and waterfalls, trees and hammocks,
    Columbia River gorge, in Benson Burner's attic.
