Blizzard survival bag: http://www.blizzardsurvival.com/product.php/100/blizzard-survival-bag

It's a waterproof, two-season sleeping bag that weighs under 400g (about 13 ounces) and takes up about as much room as a VHS cassette. I know of someone who overnighted at -10C (under 20F) in a Blizzard bag. He still has all his extremities.

Can't buy them in the US AFAIK but these guys deliver internationally: http://www.snowandrock.com/pws/UniqueProductKey.ice?ProductID=LSY007300&utm_source=google&utm_medium=base&utm_campaign=products

Franco inspired me to try out an emergency pitch of my poncho tarp. One-handed with no legs I was able to get a half-pyramid setup pretty quickly. From there getting into a heatsheets bivy would be pretty straight forward–though not exactly comfortable with a broken arm and two broken legs… if I were that banged up I'd probably forget pitching anything and try to move as little as possible.

If it ever quits pouring rain here I'll try to get a video of the process.
