Sure do! It's at these temps that they really work well. Sealed up tight unlike nylon the moisture is IN the fabric, no snow shower when you get out. Blocks the wind, though with as windy as this trip was a tarp is almost mandatory, and breathes which is necessary to eliminate condensation. Fireman and I have a season in them, as do a couple others I know, and while there is a learning curve they really are effective, heavy but worth the weight.Originally Posted by Carver
I only wish I could take this kind of cold. I'm MISERABLE already this winter but it's mostly due to rain. We've had over 10" this month. I guess it just takes getting used to but I just freeze from head to toe in temps above these. It sure is entertaining though to watch others man up and get out in this stuff. Thanks for sharing and taking us along.
Did you have it at WI Hang? Reckon I never got down to your sector to eyeball. Too full of Kringle. Just sent an Almond Macroon one to MN State Fair folks. OH SO GOOD.
If you lived up here you would/might take it. Either take it or wait 6 months to camp locally. I think one acclimates.....

Sure did. I use it as an UQP at these temps, just leave the top open at my head. I rarely use a tarp once temps get down around the teens, just the sock.
Mmmmmm.....almong macaroon. We did devour that one really fastThe latest flavor is brownie.......
I don't know what temps you're at right now in the cities but we're sitting at -46 here in Iron River. It got me chuckling thinking about how I could beat your record simply by throwing up the rig in the backyard. Unfortunately, I lack your cojones. Salute.

I am down in Florida on a gig and my wife kinda hates me currently as it is -22º in the Twin Cities right now.
-46 actual?
