I like these "cold" threads. It's cold here (Fort St. John, BC, Alaska Highway) today -34C/-29F. We get it so cold we don't bother to talk about "wind chill". I was working on a pipeline over the Christmas "holidays" and in just a few minutes, got frostbite so bad both my cheeks were white and so solid that when I tapped on them it sounded like wood. Luckily my truck was not far away and was running and warm. No scarring.
A couple of years ago some friends and I were back in the mountains hunting buffalo and it got down to -55C/-67F. The guy whose tag it was, got frostbite so bad both his cheeks and the end of his nose turned black and started oozing puss (after we thawed him out). He still wears the scars. That trip ruined most of us on cold...
