I offered him my 20 degree quilt. he bought a 0 degree mummy bag from walmart. not sure how comfortably warm it will keep him. Maybe warm to 35 if he is lucky.

This isnt actually a friend. I am friends with his wife. I have car camped with him before. I dont think he really knows what he is getting into. He was wanting to bring his mountain bike, put saddle bags on it and push it lol. I told him bikes arent allowed int he wilderness and we will be above the tree line which is super rugged. It would be a nightmare pushing a big up there. again I have a second set of ultralight gear that i offered. He will learn real fast what a 40 pound base feel like in a backpack without any suspension.

we are taking two car. If he gets tired and wants to turn around he can, im not. call me selfish if you want. The first trip we are doing is a two nighter. there is a 1000 foot elevation gain right at the beginning. It will make or break him
