Aurora peaks in December, as does Comet ISON: what to wear?

Southern Cal to the Arctic in Dec, talk about culture shock.

A wind break comes to mind. Once your there some PVC pipe, a tarp and some bungee cords. Plan it in advance. I have a small heater that screws onto the small propane cylinders that helps warm the hands.

I would think you can leave the mosquito netting at home.
