"Lael never showered, never slept indoors, and only sat down to one meal, in Pie Town"
That's my 'diner eating frenzy' out the window :( May as well not bother.

VBL
? something Body Liner?
Did she not have anything outside the sleeping bag? Doesn't that just end up trashing your bag?

@platypus
I'd try Lael Wilcox's tactics:
"Her sleeping system consisted of a Western Mountaineering Summerlite sleeping bag and a Western Mountaineering HotSac, a VBL which doubles in this situation as an emergency bivy. This is equipment which she has been using for years. The sleeping bag has a busted zipper and the fabric is ragged and fragile. It has been repaired by hand in many places. On at least one night, she slept in her helmet, which she discovered was a comfortable solution to supporting her head and staying off the ground. She did not pack a sleeping pad."
