Well, every time I see an Inuit put on an outer wear or take one off it's always a pull over type so there must be something to it. They have that whole cold as a cucumber thingie worked out pretty well.

Yes. I mostly use mine as a final over layer. It's actually quite light weight. So especially with running a dog team where I am doing a lot of running, kicking, pushing the sled up hills, I will just take it off. But I have several layers underneath. On the trip in that picture though, it was really cold and we were up on top of a mountain. We took a snow machine up there to mark the trail with flamingos for the incoming dog teams for the Yukon Quest. It was so cold that my camera froze up. That's why it's in my pocket as I couldn't get back into it's bag easily so just stuck it in there.

Layers are the key. And yea, no cotton underneath. Sometimes I wear jeans under my bibs but I always have on silk or synthetic long underwear between them and my skin. Other then jeans (sometimes) I never wear cotten out on trips in the winter. In the summer I can just pull my arms out of the sleeves if I am scrambling up a mountain to keep cool as it is cool enough here even in the summer that if you stop for very long, you get cold quickly, especially if you have been building up a sweat.

Heeheee it was our summit prize. I like bringing a little something special to have once getting to the top. Chocolate, cheese and crackers, brandy, tequila rose, only a small amount of course.

OF Course!
Perhaps you should define a "small amount". One man's warehouse is another mans bar.
