littlemo, it was cold, yes -- but not unpleasant at all. You know the old saying -- "there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing." At night, we had a down comforter and several blankets, so even though it got down to 28 inside the trailer one night, we were perfectly comfortable -- during that night I slept for nine hours, which at my age (early 60s) is astonishing.
This was not about suffering at all!)
LOL! I too am in my early (soon to be mid) 60s and if I slept 9 hours you could just go ahead and call the coroner because you can be sure I am dead!
Really I'm just jealous. It wasn't too many years ago I would have been the first to be the "backpackers" but now I have mild COPD and the extreme cold really affects me so I have to settle for looking at the snow "up on the mountains". Keep posting those great pics!
