Members LWD Posted January 15, 2009 Members Posted January 15, 2009 Sounds like a great trip, the solitude had to be great. I usually manage to keep pretty warm, at least warm enough under most conditions, however one problem I have is keeping my hands and fingers in good working condition during freezing temps. And obviously the more fun you're having the more your fingers are exposed to wet and cold. I use gloves with the finger tips that fold back, and use hand warmers on the back of my hands, but I still have my limits. Are there any good tips or tricks to help keep from freezing? Larry
