Well just got back from a week out in the field for work. Stayed in a tent with the temperature hitting about -15 (and waking up to the ground being frozen along with everything else). Not too bad but it does feel pretty damn cold.
A few points...
bivy bags - worth their weight in gold. I had my winter sleeping bag but could have easily gotten away with my summer one and the bivy bag.
Glow sticks - awesome to have and have a ton of uses.
real food is good - I kept my ration packs to keep in my vehicle for emergencies and took full advantage of the fresh breakfasts and dinners. For lunches, PB&J with fresh fruit :victory:
Sleeping pad - a good defiantly helps keep you warm
and lesson learned, I'm defiantly getting a heater for next time.
