Hi: Havn't been keeping up with the list for a long time but this discussion caught my eye. We have a buff hide and believe me it is heavy to sleep under. Also, it does not "drape" so there are lots of air gaps. Wool blankets with the majority under you are the was to go. No doubt.

Yep, take it slow. Talk to LOTS of people to learn what is right and what isn't, before you spend any money. > You'll meet lots of new >friends who are anxious to help a new guy. Yep, and some of those new friends will try to sell you everything you need, with a promise that everything they sell is 100% authentic. Not to mention that their trade goods are things that you gotta have to be a mountain man. Run away from anyone offering to outfit you...for a price, usually a high price, until you learn what you DO need.
