Bring a light snow shovel or use a snowshoe and build some snow walls around it .... helps a lot in our Minnesota Winters.
Here is a video of kwpapke and me in some -26º Minnesota winter weather.
It was an outstanding trip!!!!

Great Vid Shug! I am not sure that I would go that extream.

I was thinking into the 20s or teen would be sufficient. I think that it would be fun to wake up to a couple of inches of snow in the tarp.

Just take care to find a good site out of wind as much as possible ..... get the windward side near to the tree trunk to block wind and blowy snow.
Winter camping in Minnesota is my favorite time to go....... a challenge but so wonderful.
