Winter camping can be pretty hard but with practice you can really enjoy it. Its a balance of adjusting layers based on temperature and activity level and changing your layers as needed when sweaty or wet.

Also you need a pretty good sleeping pad alongside the warm blankets/sleeping bag.

That sounds like a lot of work just to sleep outside.

Yeah, I had a cotton sleeping bag, and a cardboard ground pad. I was a poor kid, going with my boy scout troop. I have thought about doing it again with the right gear, but decided against it. I'll be sleeping in the snow when I attempt to summit Mt. Rainier, but otherwise those two experiences were miserable enough that I don't really want to seek out that experience.
