40? It gets ALL the way down to 40? You poor things. (snicker)
At altitude it is almost always cooler at night, even mid summer. Any other time and you can expect to wake up to at least frost on the panels. I checked the forecast for the weekend and it calls for snow Friday. No big deal, set the furnace for 74F daytime and 65F at night with a very comfy down comforter.
Everyone is different and in different situations. Buddies are not a option for us as they don't like it above 7000 ft and may kill you over it. Still, seeing how others do it opens up the options for how we may do it in the future.
Mex, our camp stove puts out more heat than the trailers but nothing is faster at making 10 cups of joe than a Bunn coffee maker. 3 minutes and you are done.
