Outstanding tip Chris! Not only does it keep your bag nice and dry, but traps in heat to keep the ol' feet nice and toasty :) Thumbs up brother!

Having toasty feet is definitely a plus. Now I'm trying to figure out how to convert my pack to a zero-pound backpack ;) Thanks for watching John. - Chris

I do the same. It's definitely a problem in the typical 2-3# solo tents. I wonder if any of the water proof sprays would deteriorate the shell on a down bag? That could be an option. Either way the rain shell works every time.

I always wanted to do all the outdoor adventures like you are doing. But I am a very disabled veteran who is bed ridden part of the time. I live by a huge lake in N. MN Lake of the Woods they claim it is 72 miles to get all the way across and you would be in Canada. I try to go ice fishing when someone will take me out with my little ice fishing house. So if you have any tips on ice fishing and more winter type stuff would love it if you could send it on over to me. thanks again. vi

the best tips are always the simplest. Thanks for sharing. I will be using it.

I do no it is always best to carry with you on the ice two wood handles each has a small spike in it with a rope to go from one to the other so if you were to fall in the ice you have to ice picks to help pull yourself up our of the water with. You can see it on MN DNR page and also on the www.instructables.com/id/Make-A-Set-of-Life-Saving-Ice-Claws/ Just thought that might be something of interest to you all. thanks vi
