Re: What's the coldest you've ever been at an event?
For me, a Ft. Granger living history in (maybe) 2001 / 2002? It was so cold (15º was the warmest that it ever got) that a bunch of us went to the 4H livestock shed next door and about 10-12 of us pooled our blankets / ground cloths and laid out like a can of sardines on the straw in one of the stall. It was open air, but the sides of the stalls at least broke the wind. I don't think that I slept 5 mins.
Then, Perryville (2001?) when we threw down on the ground and awoke covered in frost.
Bentonville Progressive March from Ben Tart's property to the battlefield (2000? 2001?) when it was bitterly cold and the wind was blowing about 25 kts. Coldest I've ever been in the saddle.
