RE: gloves?
buy a pair of wool gloves. you can get a cheap pair from walmart or you can get them through the sportmans guide catalog, they are the military glove liners.you can also find them at a military surplus store. they work really good and they will keep your hands warm if they get wet also.one thingbto remember though, if your wearing wool gloves don't wipe them across your mouth unless you want a mouthful of fiber. made that mistake only once.
