I recently got back from a car camping trip to the artic circle in the Yukon. It was an awesome and stunningly beautiful trip. Some questions were raised regarding the sleep setup I use. Currently, I use a Therm-A-Rest NeoAir XLite, which has an R-value of 3.2 with a 15 degree F Big Agnes bag. On very cold nights (below freezing temperatures) I add a moving blanket underneath with up to 5 regular blankets wrapped around the sleeping bag. My question is, how big a difference would a sleeping pad with an R-value of 5.7 make compared to 3.2? I'm also wondering about some of those technical blankets. Could one tech blanket take the place of 5 regular blankets?
Thanks a lot,
Mike
