You know what they say in Finland: If you are freezing your toes then put on a hat

[landongendur]

Really? I've never heard of that saying before. What does it mean?

[theiamania]

That you are freezing your toes not because they are cold, but because your body is using the energy to warm up other parts of you. And up to 80 or is it 90% of you body heat is lost through your head. If you can keep some of that heat in, then maybe there will be enough to warm up your toes

[landongendur]

Oh wow! I've never though of that. I really like that saying :)

@marielato you can't even spell 'retard', you idiot.

Those eyebrows need something done. Gendur should be some night club like Beds where there's beds. Are you crazy? you're gonna be fcuking hot which you are. LOL you've had too much coke. I can't even walk through the damn slippery ass snow and there's a young kid girl who runs down the damn hill faster without falling on her ass. I tuque robber's mask would work.

Does cotton retain moisture, is that the danger?

A parka would be nice, especially since there's a hood that can be flipped up.

I get by in Anchorage with a good base layer of polartech fleece and a variety of outer jackets depending on the cold. I have a very large north slope parka but almost never need it. Less is usualy more, but gloves and a balaclava are essential. Stay clear of anything cotton esp. when it's below freezing. Cotton is death in the deep cold.
