Do NOT pile on the clothes and do NOT use an air mattress. The cold air from the mattress will just seep up from below. Change into some fresh socks and underwear, climb into the bag and zipper up. Helps also to lay out your bag on a layer of clothing or a blanket to insulate from the ground. Your body heat is supposed to get trapped in the bag and keep you warm. Helps to wear a toboggan also since a lot of heat escapes through your head. Trust me, I've done plenty of cold weather camping with the scouts.If you don't have a bag made for really cold weather, get a flannel sheet to line it with or go to K-mart and pick up one of their fleece sleeping bags to put inside your main bag.
