    If somebody wants to go and overwinter or out into the wilds - fine. If they ask for recommendations and don't like what they hear - fine. If ten people respond and give varying degrees of useful information - fine. If they're nose is going to get all bent out of shape because they didn't like what they heard - fine. If you don't like the answer, don't ask the question.

    Actually, take a tomahawk. I hear that they appreciate using yours to scalp you instead of having to get blood on theirs.

    Good advice

    Some of us know full well the rigors of winter,forget what you know and look at
    the exposure, winter in a cabin is not winter out in the weather.if you winter in the cabin stay at home ,if you winter in the weather, dont leave your toes
    at "home"

    When it snowed about 8 times in the mountains of Afghanistan. I was the Numpty and said
    It snows here in the mountains?? Well 3 ft later and waste deep snow I felt the power of weather, also seeing our mud hut getting swallowed with slush and being destroyed. By winters break we had a 10ft high by 3 feet wide washed out door that was not there in the beginning.

    I felt the winter chill all night for a long time. Months actually, sometimes I would wonder if I would ever feel the tip of my nose again.

    Thank god for gortex. I hear Rick actually takes the credit... haha

    I built a brick stove and used dead wood and bushes to keep the other wood dry. Talk about a pain.

    Not me. Two of my buddies Gore and Tex get the credit for that. But since I'm Minister of Science I get a percentage.

    Really? If you've got $100 to throw away on a good time there's this woman I heard about in Topeka...hmmmm...never mind.
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    Let's it hereby be known to all that I neither disparage nor make fun of women. Further, let it be known, that I shun all who would even think about disparaging or making fun of women.

    How'd I do, girls?
