Suggested Temp Rating of Backcountry Late Season Hunting in CO?

[Gotcha_]

Thanks all,

All great ideas to add warmth to the sleep setup. Looking at booties for sleep/glassing time. Also the nalgene has worked for me / also added the hot hands super warmer at the base of bags that honestly kill it.

Grabbed this Eddie Bauer First Ascent -30 bag. 50% off now and seemed to be ok for price.

I'll add this. I wouldn't do what I'm talking about without having a puffy like the Sitka Kelvin down windstopper which is 250grams of down with windstopper. Its almost another sleeping bag on its own. Also im comfortable doing this from experience and knowing I have the safety factor of a wood stove in the redcliff. In my opinion you need to make sure the puffy you take is designed for extreme cold. A good way to ease into this is testing in the backyard that way if it gets too cold or unbearable you can just go in the house.

That’s why, even though I may not use it for a couple seasons in a row, I’ll never get rid of that Jacket. Thing is crazy warm.
