    Thanks for this! Heading out in sub-zero temps this weekend and planning on layering - this makes me feel like my plan will work fine, and using my sit pad under my feet is a brilliant idea that I would have never thought of.

    • @shugemery
      @shugemery  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Glad to hear that. Layering works real well. Be toasty and don't forget to think about your camp clothing!

    Dude. I just love you. I never get tired of your videos. Seriously. They are so well done and so very informative. I’m a hammock camper because of you! I know nothing about making videos for TH-cam. Still, the time and effort you put into them is not lost on me. May you and your family have a happy, healthy, and blessed Christmas and New Year! Can’t wait to see the next video! Cheers!

    Great stuff, Shug! I came across that chart from EE the other day when I had the same question about layering. I successfully layered a 20-degree UQ with a 40-degree UQ this weekend and got down to single digits with no issues.

    Nice vid. Made it through a record low long weekend of -47 F when I was a teenager with a 3 bag setup. A 30 deg synthetic inside a 20 deg down inside an army surplus down bag. I'm sure I compressed the inner bag some but had the hoods cinched down so that only my nose poked through the inner bag. Other than a cold nose, I was good to go.

  • @15205golfer
    @15205golfer 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great info! I found that layering sleep systems, just like layering clothes is da beast. I usually have a 20 degree bag I sleep in, and lay another sleeping bag underneath. Never had an underquilt. Ony my ridgerunner, this weekend, I will put my thermarest inflatable in the pad sleeve, then lay a 30 degree bag underneath my 20 degree. Then, for my feet...I found the ULTIMATE item to keep my feet warm....I use my thermal insert liners from my Pac boots. Whooo hooooooo yeah, buddy! Happy trails!

    Thanks Shug! I've been thinking of layering my quilt sets (40 & 20) and now I've got some tips to keep in mind! Camping out over Christmas I reached my new low, 19 degrees with my 20 degree quilts only, and was still plenty warm! Now I just need to beef up my gear for when I'm outside the hammock, that was the only time I was cold.
    Have a great new year!

    Your channel has gotten me out in the cold for the first time. Montana early fall temp 12 degrees. I’m still working out my system as I transition from ground sleeping to hammock. I’m converting my Hennessy classic entry to zip using a cottage vender you mentioned. I also had Dream Hammock make me an ultra light Darian which I am currently trying to dial in for lighter pack weight. I have a Sierra Sniveler which I have used for years and the Jacks are better nest which was made to fit the bottom entry Hennessy Hammock. Recently I purchased the Greylock 4 to beef up my warmth for winter camping. I still felt a little chill in the early morning which I think is due to improper attachment of the underquilt. I will try the shock extender and see if that helps. I haven’t settled into the right setup for me yet but I’m having fun as I go.
    Thanks for inspiring me to get out and enjoy the beautiful winter landscape. There is nothing like a hot drink in the hammock as the sun rises.

    @psycholocke4090 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    on my first army Bivi in the woods in late autumn i learned a lot from my instructors. one of the best tips was: when it's cold, you should strip down! put your clothes into your sleeping bag (or sleep system). So when you wake up you can put on some warm clothes.
    and boy was i glad for that tip. even if sleeping itself was a bit cold. getting up and into warm clothes was so good. while others didn't try it and woke up cold and had no easy way of getting waem again.

    @uptrail7169 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Whoooo Buddy))) I have doubled my 20 F top quilt with the 50 F summer top quilt and it works good. Never tried it yet with the under quilt. I've seen the same comments on hammock forums. They just had a question about favorite TH-cam channels and you easily had the most votes. I just started a new closed facebook group called ( Backpacking TH-cam Channels Group ) I already have many channels in it like Spiguyver Backpacking, Adventure Archives, Backcountry Exposure, and others. Happy New Year!

    Great info there Shug! That jacket around the foot box looks rather compressed, but it is a great idea. I can't seem to find a down jacket like that in a 4 or 5xl. They think that "Big Boys" don't do the outdoors I suppose. Sleeping bags are hard to find for a 6'5" "Big Boy" as well. Top quilt and under quilt are my life savers and I add a fleece quilt when I go colder. I don't see anything temps below 15* in my area, so that generally gets me good. Thanks for being Shug! You are the best and most entertaining source of information on hammocking on the web.

    • @shugemery
      @shugemery  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      A bit but still warms the feet. Less if I just slip it over TQ footbox and not around the hammock.

    Thanks so much my friend. I have enjoyed your videos tremendously. Me and my father have just about everything we need for our hammock trip coming up. Just as soon as it quits raining here in alabama. We have nearly watched all your videos and love every one. I think it's amazing how you explain in detail everything you do. And the comedy just adds to the enjoyment. Keep the videos coming and you have a couple of southern boys behind you here in midwest alabama. Thank you so much. Oh, we're fixing to try our hand at a couple of wood stoves like the one you use. Wish us luck. Lol

    Car camping in the winter I have a large sleeping bag and a smaller one that fits inside. I have been trying several different hammocks here at the house, but I just can't seem to get the "hang" of it. The amok and bridge designs I think would work better for me. I wish I could rent them instead of spending several hundred to find they end up in the closet with all the others. Living in the Southwest desert, there are not a lot of trees out here anyway. I could take a hammock frame and assemble it when I park.

      You could buy an Amok or bridge to try and return if you don't like it. Warbonnet and Amok have good return policies

    Great video Shug. I rang in the new year near banff alberta at -17°c. Just thought I'd share that with you, dont know why... I like to use a down sleeping bag between the hammock and the underquilt for a little extra warmth.

    I have 2 Enlightened Equipment Revelation and I love 'em. My 0 degree save me on the AT last March. No more sleeping bags for me. Same with my Exped Winterlite pad. Quilts are great for us ground bound folks too.

      Have a Happy NYE Shug . Yeah I know you don't indulge :) After buying and using the MSS one winter in the single digits with mixed results. I now use a a Therm-a-Rest MondoKing XXL under my -20 BA Elk Park and INSIDE the Elk park "pad sleeve" I have a Nemo Cosmo Air pad . Then I put my Nemo Strato Loft Down sleeping bag inside of the Elk Park BA . Now this 68 Y.O has slept warm and cozy into the Negative TEENS. Have NOT been below - 20 but once , ole Gubs was warm a comfy :) A bunch of wt , but after pulling in a few miles and the sun goes down, staying SAFE and warm is very important to this old vet !!!! Have used the BA King quilt in combo W the BA bag and the Nemo . I will """NEVER""", ever sleep on the ground when under 50F again if it does not have a PAD SLEEVE !!!! A real cold , chasing the pad all night KILLER !!! Hope you and yours has a Happy / Healthy 19 !! ........ G

    Likin That intro , prooofessional i swear it was CGI HAA! Good tips , i was out last night uk -3.5 c not much but good by my standards. I found on the HG incubator it had a cold spot just by by knee, you know on the angle , back ok feet ok but that two foot area was hard to seal because the fabric on the Hammock , i bet this is a common spot to have a cold spot ? I had it adjusted best i could i may have to make a kidney shape down pillow to fill the gap it just will not pull up , happens on both hammocks PPpffftttt, and my mini filter froze solid so thats done now ;) still learning in the cold all good fun though , cold spots are my teacher i tell ya. early!!
