I think Desperado has a point.
Being in the tree stand for 12 hours just gets you cold to start with.
Being with buddies helps.
Having plan B(back up) might save your life.

Plans C, D, E, F, G and Z might not hurt either.

In other words don't go putting yourself into a survival situation just to practice survival skills.

Try this somewhere that you can go get warm if it does not work the first time.
