The hot (hawt) nalgene trick can work very well. In fact I've actually gotten too warm using a hot water filled nalgene and had to take it out of my bag for a bit to let it cool down.

@ Chad and co.: I hike in Steger Mukluks in winter, and I put them in my inside-out GG comp sack. Never had a leak or issue, and they come out nice and warm and pliable the next AM. Also, I hike in VB socks.

Also, I'm 5'6", but use a long bag (good for those 6-6 folks) - I fill the bottom with down coat, boots go right in front of it (toward head).
