Trail Runner and rais'n hammock, I do carry a couple chemical warmers for emergency but do not want to rely on a consumable for constant availability.
I do wear a fleece cap, when needed.

I have had a bad really experience with wet down. I try and avoid down anything. Long time fan of wool. However, really liking some of the modern synthetics, expecially if I have to carry it on my back.

Western Mountaineering and Exped also make down booties!
dkurfiss, you are right. I do not know how that slipped by me?

Wonder if I could throw together some fleece sleep booties? Easy to work with, cheap, and machine washable.

To all the "no socks" advocates. That may work for normal feet but even around the house, if it is 60's or below? I must have insulated socks and warm slippers. And this is on carpeted floors. Blood flow issues do not keep my feet warm and have caused nerve damage that make so my feet feel full of shattered glass for weeks, if they get cold.
