    The snow and the cold are no joke. Buy yourself some good winter clothing straight off the bat. Don’t go for those cheap off brands. Oh no. You want to be warm, you want the good stuff. And remember to layer.

      It’s all in the socks and a good, warm hat. Wools over cotton, wet cotton from sweat or snow in cold enough weather can be dangerous.

        Anything made with Merino Wool is phenomenal. Warm feet in the cold outside. Comfortable feet in the warm building. It’s wild.

      Depends on what you do. Plenty of people only have to walk from car door to heated building so crappy winter clothes isn’t a huge deal. There are those people that wear shorts year round based on that principle.

          Years ago my battery died while I was at work. It was late shift so there was nobody else around. It had been snowing its ass off the tow companies were all backed up It was a 3-hour wait.

          At sub-zero, Even in my car in my winter coat, that was brutal.

          Now I carry a tightly wound sleeping bag in the trunk and a jump pack.
