My dad, who mustered and culled over a fair bit of the Sth Is high country in the late 1940s, including a very cold winter of shooting in the aptly named Siberia Valley in 1951 or 52 when the river froze, reckoned he carried pyjamas, and that a key to staying warm was to get out of your wet (wether from rain or perspiration) clothes at night.
Old man, ex-deer culler, taught me to do same. Takes a bit longer to get dressed in morning but usually sleep nice and warm. Two weeks ago slept in clothes worn during the day, about -16C, first time in a long time that I can remember being cold during night.
