[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1260480, member: 54178"] To keep my pack light I try to make items do a dual purpose whenever possible. For extending the temperature range of my 20 F. Western Mountaineering Megalite sleeping bag I can wear my light down puffy jacket and medium weight polyester underwear along with a balaclava to cover my neck and most of my face. (BTW, my WM Megalite bag is cut larger in the torso so I have room for this extra insulation.) Also I put my zipped up GTX or eVent parka over the foot of my sleeping bag. This also keeps tent wall frost from melting and wetting the foot of my warm bag. And placing soft boughs beneath my tent floor gives more insulation, as does placing my pants and sweater beneath my mattress. So what do you guys use to do extend bag warmth? [/QUOTE]
