Heating stones

Thought of a new use for all those rocks.

Pick up rocks. Drop rocks near fire/heat source. Leave rocks there for 1-2 hours to heat up. Place bedroll over rocks. Sleep with a higher heat bonus and less risk of freezing to death overnight.

For beds put rocks in spare pair of clothing....hat, socks, whatever. Keep wrapped rocks in inventory. Provides warmth bonus. Sleep. 

If they can make cooked canned food/drinks stay warm in your inventory for a certain amountof time, they can do it with hot rocks too.

I read up on it on the Internet....I guess it's another tactic humans have been using since the stone age...no pun intended...

You may find it interesting to read up on 'fire beds', too..

I actually read/watched a lot of info about heated rocks, which included burying them and placing your tent/bed roll over them. I figured anything involving digging would be too complicated because someone would bring up the ground being frozen and not having a shovel....

Thank you for additional proof/ideas though!
