Today's Report
Another chilly day in the neighbourhood but a fantastic day on the trails. Low winds predicted today so it should be pretty nice even in the more open trails. Chanse has regroomed everything with the Husky. Night skiing is a go but the cold is taking a hit to the batteries that power the lights. We suggesting bringing a headlamp.
Lessons are still a go today, please dress appropriately. We may take a break and go over talking points inside so the lesson isnt 100% outside.
Everything is open.
What would I be wearing while on the trails in the cold?
Top, 3 to 4 layers: my warmer base layer, merino baselayer that I use for a mid layer, maybe a light fleece (for me I find a fleece too much for a solo ski, although would have keep it if I was skiing with others) and jacket on top.
Bottom, 2 layers (I never wear more than 2 just change the weight): my warmer base layer, and heavier outer pants. Proper underwear makes a difference too! The no cotton holds true to underwear just as much as your base layer.
Accessories: warm hat (Sauce Chill Toque), regular weight buff, warmest mitts (Auclair Gigatex, again I find these too much for a solo ski but good if I was skiing with someone), and my Lorpen socks. I usually put on some vaseline on my cheeks and lips to help cut the wind and add a layer of protection. It wonβt specifically help with frostbite but it helps with wind burn.
Bottom line donβt let the cold scare you off! You may discover you can enjoy being outside even when it is cold.
