RE: How do you beat the cold?
Go visit your local Army surplus store and pick up some Mickey Mouse boots and the heavy weight poly proplyne(sp) thermals and a good wool sweater.Over that I wear a pair of Cabela's waterproof heavy weight fleece coveralls. When I sit in really cold weather I'll wear two hats one a full head cover and a good wool cap. Mittens will keep your hands warmer then gloves,I wear the ones that are both finger less gloves with the mitten top.Works for me.
