I found that I have to use a foam mat with my exped 7 when it gets below 30 degrees at night." I upgraded tents to a Hilleberg Nammatj for winter and a Big Agnes Copper Spur for Spring through Fall, I really need to get at least a 0 degree bag like you have. Thanks for the response and the great report. |

11/05/2019 02:37PM Really pretty, early winter photos. It's interesting to see all the exposed rock you'd normally never see. I paddled that area from the numbers down through N Wilder and up the small river through Hudson, Fire and Rifle back to the numbers chain about a year before the fire. It's incredible how it has changed since then and it takes me a minute to recognize the different places. |

11/05/2019 01:18PM Very "cool" trip report. The pics are amazing. I have never pushed the limits like that in the fall, but have some interesting adventures due to my springtime enthusiasm. |

I found that I have to use a foam mat with my exped 7 when it gets below 30 degrees at night." I spend a ton of time camping during the winter, but end up using the same Themorest inflatable pad. I do have a "sleeve" that I made for it this year that is made up of heat reflective material. It runs the length of it, and adds a little "r-value." My bag is a Slumberjack DriDown Sojourn -20. I have really liked the bag the couple years I have used it. |
