And the forecast for Mouth of Wilson from weather.com. I subtract 10 deg to compensate for elevation at the campground.

My wife thinks we’re nuts camping in this weather forecast. Im less worried about being bundled in the hammock with hot water bottles than I am hanging around camp during the day in those temps.

That's where I had the most issues, hanging out.

Looking a little dicey for me this weekend. I hope to be there (especially to test out my new 0-degree quilt set) but ... life happens.

Anyone happen to have experience with the JRB quilt suspension system that can show me what I'm doing wrong with it?

If you go into this video at the :50 second mark I hook up and go over a JRB UQ and show how to skew it to cover feet better. May give some insight.

Thanks Shug in the third person! I bought the Old Rag Mountain and I wondered about the UQ suspension because there are some grosgrain loops at a couple of points along the sides of the quilt so I wondered if a secondary suspension was supposed to be ran through that or something. I'll have to get some practice in before trying it out this weekend. With 1 degree temps being forecast for this weekend, I don't want to be trying to fiddle too much trying to figure out my quilt suspension.
