Default RE: Any suggestions for Freezing Feet in deer stand?

I live in Saskatchewan, Canada, so I think I know about cold and staying warm. There are a few keys to keep your feet warm.
1.Wear a pack boot...those with thick rubber soles and a thick wool liner.
2.both your boots and your feet should be warm before going afield.
3.use foot warmers, I know Cabelas has 20 hour warmers, I have just used the 6 hour ones and they work.
4.Have a plypropelene sock under a wool sock. The poly will wick away any moisture so your feet dont sweat.
5.stand up once in a while in your stand, wiggle your toes
6.have a barrier for your feet to be on, not just the frozen tundra, you can use a foam pad of some kind.

Hope this helps.
