    On a more serious note, I like to heat the tent up a bit before hitting the sack. My sleeping bag is good for the low temps. I've found that adding a liner or maybe an extra blanket inside helps trap the air to keep you warm. And a hat.

    Cool that's pretty much how we handled Joshua Tree last February down in the upper 30s. Also blasted the heater when someone had to pee at 3am and then turned it off before we tucked back in.

    I have been adding a poncho liner to the inside of my sleeping bag and also use a hot/warm water bottle between my legs. This set up was great last winter in DV.

    I can also recommend the 110# chocolate labrador retriever. He heats up pretty well but is kinda wiggly.
