>>1112368Id put a tarp under your tent just to protect it from tears and add a moisture barrier. We do get dew just like anywhere else.
You'll want to pitch the tent somewhere that will get morning sun but shade in the afternoon.
I usually use a foam mat underneath my sleeping pad, and then i keep a wool blanket on top of my 20 degree bag. You will probably want a colder one or add more wool blankets.
I cant stress a beanie enough. There is nothing worse than waking up 20 times at night because your ears and nose hurt. Id opt for a scarf of some sort or something to cover your face too.
Also, i usually take a few swigs of whiskey before lights out as well. Make sure youre drinking water too. I always make the mistake of not drinking enough in the high elevation because i dont feel thirsty and i always end up making no sense when i talk to people or try to accomplish simple tasks. Water will also keep you warm along with calories at night.
