But don't just exercise in good weather. I'm out in 20 below and 40 above rain blizzard sleet and snow and heat. It doesn't matter how good of shape your in, if your defeated mentally you will be defeated physically.It's been minus 10-15 not including the wind chill for the last week and a half where I live,even though it limits what can do cause of family and work, I was out for 2 hour every evening pitch black darkness, freezing cold weather hiking this tower on top of this mountain in gusting winds, ice covered pathway hiking with 3 dogs.
Wouldn't get home till 10:30pm but dogs have to get waked everyday reguardless of weather, and you never know what weather you may encounter in the mountains,so I use that to my pets to my advantage as well.Hunting high country isn't all about physical fitness there is way more mental toughness involved that alot if hunters think there is. Don't under estimate mental state.
