I'm working on my cold weather camping skills (transitioning from day ice climb trips to overnighters). My following ? is in the context of use inside a 4 season tent (not an exposed forced bivy, nor a inside a snow shelter), where the ambient low temperature will likely be low enough below freezing such that anything items introduced into tent frozen would remain frozen (unless placed in sleeping bag):
Would it be beneficial to lay out a dry climbing rope in a flat pattern of bights on the tent floor, beneath the sleeping pad, for whatever insulation benefit it provides? If so, would it still be beneficial if the rope was partially wet/frozen from prior climbing use?
