Some -20s would nice right now (and should be a common high at this time of year). Instead we have been above zero many days and it feel like March :evil:

As to emergency measures when you find yourself not wearing enough on a cold day, a couple of charcoal hand warmers in the the mesh inside pockets of your jacket can make a huge difference.
Anyone have some advice......?

It's a very confusing topic because so many in the ski industry don't understand it. Kind of like searching for info on parabolic skis ten years ago; you would have found a lot of nay sayers and conflicting ideas.

Another throbbing feeling in the wallet!


Out of date ski. You'll be making it 25% harder for her to ski than it needs to be. Do her a big favour and find something with tip rocker/early rise

It's back in the States, but not the pink that often went with it fortunately.

Too much on topic - you can't consider yourself a regular yet. Maybe next time try adding a couple of paragraphs about the ice cream they serve at the snow dome, or the motor way traffic getting there :wink:
