I had failed to follow all the great advice.
I could not feel my feet and toes. I reached down and touched my bare feet as I got in hammock.
My toes felt like foreign objects—like ice cubes but not wet—just cold. I was cold all over.
Temperatures were in high teens Fahrenheit
A couple hours later I woke, to be pleasantly surprised—I was warm all over—even my feet and toes! I had stacked my zero* underquilt and 20* underquilt—as well as my zero* top quilt and 20* top quilt. All that downy goodness, saved the night!
