Keeping head and face warm and comfortable at night

[beforethehunt]

I have a 0 degree quilt and a insulated pad for high country early season. I’m just looking for product suggestions for keeping head and face warm at night if it gets below 35 degrees

A fleece ski mask may work for you.

In real cold ... a fur ruff is great , but for 30's a buff ... or even just the face shield on something like a Sitka base layer

I have an Under Armor balaclava that is $......it was a gift from a buddy and it is about perfect for sleeping in.

Having no hair, my head and ears get cold. I use a thin fleece beanie I bought at Bass Pro. Keeps the dome warm and is comfortable enough to sleep in. I don't like anything on my face.

Neck gaiter + down beanie.

35 degrees just a merino wool beanie below freezing zpacks goose down hood .

Beanie, or winter hat

I have a couple of different setups. I will often sleep in my Sitka Core Lightweight Hoody. It has a built in face mask and obviously a hood. It’s a very light piece. But, it keeps the chill off my shaved head. If it’s going to be really cold, I have a fleece beanie and a merino wool Buff.

Neck gaiter and toque. Both in Kuiu Peloton 97 for temps around freezing. Anything below that and I move into thicker materials. I prefer the 2 piece setup as I find it more versatile and comfortable vs a balaclava. Though I haven't tried a purpose built down balaclava for sleeping.

I use an older Sitka Traverse Balaclava to keep my head, neck, and face warm.

I have the Sitka fleece neck gaiter that I pull over my head below my eyes but above my nose. Can breath freely and it covers my head, ears, and I like the soft fleece over my eyes as the dark dark helps me sleep.

What? You got a quilt and not a matching Hoodlum? Rookie.

They come in 2. 4 & 6oz thicknesses and work great.

I just pull my quilt over my head. If its real cold, ill wear some cheap beanie.

Neck gaiter + beanie
Neck/face mask like the one you using skiing + beanie.

My puffy jacket has a hood that works really well.
