@MrTrueTrekker It does work very well and you can actually keep this up the whole time you are working, and get a fair amount of water into your body. Many people are afraid to do this because of what they've heard over the years. Thanks for your comment, have a great day!!

Plus when your physically active, it wont really effect your core tempature. I always go the the less dry snow and look for ice near the river, it'll have more water per sq in. great vid, keep it up

Good point, the thing I wanted to get to people is that although it's not the best course of action, it's much better to try this than to risk your life by making yourself vulnerable to hypothermia.
