I wussed out - walked the total of 30', to the top of the garden. setting up around 11:30. Slept 'til about 6am, waking every couple hours (one Wowbagger
) - clear skies, pretty twinkling stars
Brrrr...got distinctly cool between 3-6 where upper surfaces contacted, mainly due to the condensation freezing
inside the Hunka, and starting to affect the Ember insulation - would've been better under tarp / tent, having distinct air gap, defintely wasn't as chilly on Tan Hill in the tent.
>Interested in pic's and kit list though.
Tramped the SNO down. Plastic tarp as groundsheet, Hunka XL, Exped Synmat HL Winter LW, 9cm thick (-18c rating), S2S Ember III quilt (-11c rating). Worn: Fulke Mountain Men Socks, Leggings (+thin Trolls from ~5am), Helly base layer, Fleece, Bobble hat. Never needed gloves. Laces on boots froze, despite being wrapped in bags.
