YES. I've taken a regular Thermarest Ridgerest CCF pad down to 27*, with a 40* bag as my topquilt. When temps get below freezing, I'm sleeping in longjohns, wool socks, a long-sleeve poly shirt and a long-sleeve fleece shirt.
What takes that combo from comfy to toasty for me: the hot-water Nalgene trick. "Whooooo buddy!", does that ever work great!! (Make sure the lid's on tight, or throw into a ziploc for extra protection...)

PS: I love the BWCA in the fall/late fall. With the leaves off the trees, it's a whole 'nother bioclime....
