Thanx for the link to the liners.

White gas ... about 11 to 13 ounces per day.

That's not to bad i think.

Feet ... were good in camp .. got a bit cold on the really cold night. Not too bad.

Down booties?

Pulk ... did a terrific job. I will use it again.

Cool, so now i have to be on the look out for an old roomy pulk,
the modern ones seems to be to comfort shaped, the seat is almost the same hight as the sides.

The SHT IS sector seven!

I think i underestimated the size of sector seven

Thanx for the link to the liners.
Down booties?

Oh Yes .... down booties in camp are the only way ... unless I get Steger Mukluks someday! http://shop.mukluks.com/prodinfo.asp...ariation=M11WW

I have some cheap pile lined mocs that work well around camp.

Anyone ever used these Mukluks?

You two are either troopers or nuts. I can't decide.

Well, we are about 90 degrees warmer here in northern california than your super-frozen low temp.

90 degrees! I had to do the math twice to get my mind around it.

loooooooove sunny california. At least now.
in about 6 months I'll be whinging and whining and carrying on.

(90!)

OK I've decided: troopers!

Don't feel badly, we can't decide either.

Crazy, foolish, stupid, etc. are all words I've heard from my wife...

Like I was telling my daughter this morning, there is a fine line between genius and insanity. Often the only way to tell is by the outcome.

I’m all jealous n stuff!!!!
Wish Minnesota wasn’t such a long drive, I would join you for a weekend or 3.

I thought the first video was a 9.5 of 10, & the last one (before this) a 10.5 of 10, I can’t even rate this video, can’t count that high!

Suffice it so say, as I do above: I’M ALL JEALOUS N STUFF!! I may even imitate you guys & go out for a one-night stand near home myself. Sadly, it is supposed to “Only” get down to around +3 tonight.


The weather at Mt Rogers wouldn't dare get that cold. I HAVE SPOKEN!!!!






(There, that ought to be good for another 10 - 15 degrees colder )
