ADDED: This is an EMERGENCY forced stay 5 miles in, on the Mt., till EMS arrives....GOD forbid....not a camp. {in 1998 broke a leg on way out to get another weeks supplys-walked 3 miles to truck-drove 25 mi to town-got cast & crutches -drove back-called my 2 sons and they packed our stuff out and we went home safely.} I'm upgrading my survival plans, incase I have the Fred G.Sanford. BIG one! LOL!
====================================================
Just in case I "FALL & I CAN'T GET UP" (I'm older than dirt-here comes 70) while I am 10,000 to 11,000 ft ELK hunting this (my 18th )year I will be packing a Mil. Camo-GORTEX $125 Bivy Bag and a $20 Fleece cabelas sleeping bag. Now I'll already have punched my little 911 button, but my fat *** could freeze before they get to me.
Here is where I need the help. Got in the Bivy-Zipped it up in the house and in 3 min I was sweating.
I'm not camping on the Mt., But I might be staying on the Mt. One night and I want to know how to keep all my clothes on -including a down jacket- and what sequence I should use these items so next morning My Hunting clothes are dry, not soaked with Condensation.
This would be the night from HELL.
Any and all live world experiences welcome...+ … any second hand truths!

- Fleece Sleeping bag- shake the moisture out next morning and pack it.
- Gortex Bivy bag
- Space blanket and tri-angle space tent
- Butchering tarp-string a line for roof support
