The good news is that I have a ticket to September Wildfire. The bad news is that the temperatures at night are in the low 40's again. This lead to a miserable time on my last trip.

A friend of mine reccomended Patagonia to pick up some Capilene 3 clothing, which is good at retaining heat. Part of me balks at spending as much on clothing for the trip as I would for the trip itself. The other part of me says... it was damn cold last time! I'll be talking to a globe trotter and outdoors person tonight , and get some advice. More thoughts on IceFire to come in a few days. Tomorrow morning it's time for my monthy head checkup. More on that later, too.

I COMPLETELY planned on talking with you about this last night, I even did some research on the Capilene clothing! *smacks forehead*

I have time before I go (though I don't know if you do) and may snag the sleeping bag from you. Some coverage beats what I have... which is a big pile of blankets. You're right, the Capilene will have merit year round. I'll check out Hilton's or City Sports as well.

I leave on Friday, so if you want to borrow some gear, you should drop by tonight or tomorrow evening ( I am abstaining from movies to pack)
