Cold Days Climbing - What to wear ? 8-Jun-2007 At 6:50:46 PM Take!
Message
Keep your head and neck as warm as possible. That way your body will 'allow' your extremities to share in the warmth.
A big f-off beanie and neck warmer will usually do the job. Then the usual thermal layering for the rest of the body.

On a lightly snowing (yes snow, dumb huh?) Mt Boyce day I found that chewing a small hole in the cuff of my thermals let me pull them over my wrist and poke my thumb through the hole. This kept my hands a bit warmer and didn't really impede climbing as only my wrist and the heal of my hand was covered.

(Correct food and water intake will keep ya warm too but that's another subject).

Good luck
