January has been an exceedingly cold month in these parts and we have to go to extreme measures to stay warm (and safe) when out in the elements. Remember this trip that I blogged about? Here's another picture of me out on Lake Winnipeg. It looks like I'm on the moon!
What does it take to stay warm? In the above photo, I'm wearing on the bottom:
- Long underwear (leggings made out of Thinsulate)
- Thermal socks
- Jeans
- Ski pants
- Sorrel winter boots
And on the top, I'm wearing:
- Long sleeved shell
- Winter running hoodie
- Down winter coat
- Snowmobile double-layered mitts
- Neck tube
- Winter running hat
- Balaclava
and a smile! :)
