Tips and Tricks
WHEN NOT TO LAYER - In almost every outdoor magazine you’ll find authors touting the importance of "layering" when in the backcountry. Where clothing is concerned, this is a great idea; however there is at least one time that this isn’t good. While camping in very cold weather I made the very bad decision to throw a wool blanket over my sleeping bag to help offset the cold intrusion brought on by a malfunctioning zipper. The end result, the weight of the blanket compressed the bag, causing it to lose its "loft" making things much worse. If you do have to layer, make sure to put additional layers inside the bag, not on the outside.

In reference to your stubourn fires, one ingrediant that you might find useful is Coleman fuel unless purchased at Hanksville for almost 20 bucks a can. Thanks for the lil smokies at Barbs Halloween Party.
