lets share tips for more enjoyable outdoor experience.

here is my advice for staying warm at night
>thick layers under you, more bedding the better
>warm sleeping bag or two less warm sleeping bags inside each other
>use a liner bag to save ware and cleaning and also keep you more warm
>a cotton liner will give aproximately 3-4 degrees warmer, the same for silk liner but a fleece liner will give you 5-8 degrees dependent on thickness but adds more weight
>go to bed warm, full (food) and dry, change sweatunderwear
>sleep in wool underlayer and wool socks
>sleep with a wool balaclava or wool beanie and or a scarf/buff/neckerchief because 80% of heatloss in a lseeping bag is the neck/face/head
>sinch the face opening of the sleeping bag
>fill waterbottles with hot water and put them in your bag with a wool sock over them
>only dry socks in a sleepingingbag too much damp cloths and your bodyheat will not dry them
>place damp clothes under your sleeping bag between your matt, this will give extra insulation from the ground and dry them out a bit until morning
>if your feet a very cold empty your backpack or fill it with dry spare clothes and stick the bottom of your sleeping bag into you backpack
>if you need to pee, GET UP AND PEE, your body uses a lot of energy(physically and mentally) keeping the piss inside you warm, you dont need that energy use and it could be better used keeping you warm longer
>do push-ups, crunches while inside your sleeping bag but not so much that you start to sweat, this will kickstart your heat
>use earplugs if your are in a tent with a lot of people or the forest is making spoopy noises

hope this helps someone out there
