      What type of gloves do you guys wear when caching in the cold? I’m sure the bigger ski gloves might be a bit bulky to be able to navigate the buttons on a GPS. At the same time, the thin driving gloves may not be warm enough for caching. So I would assume you wear something in between.

      I’m a Fleet Farm guy…wear three sets of gloves…a light thin cotton/nylon pair… to manipulate the buttons on the GPS… inside a pair of wool chopper liners and an oversize pair of leather chopper mitts that slip off easily. Heck, if you can get a big enough pair of oversized choppers you can even keep your GPS inside one of them keeping it warm and snug. They’ll withstand any kind of cold…and I’m a woosy when it comes to cold 😀

      Hey…I got FTP on this page. Oh, wait…that’s another thread 😆

        Different Pamida, but we live within walking distance, too. And the flakes just now stared to fly. Must be Wisconsin if you have less than a six-month break between the last spring snow and the first fall snow.

            Was out running in it…very nice!

            I love global warming! Hmmm…no warming in the past 11 years…earliest measurable snow…we best change that nomenclature to “climate change” before anyone notices!

              It snowed satuday while camping at Mauthe Lake. I was prepared for rain, but not snow. Should have brought snow boots instead of rubber boots. 🙂

                It’s less than 1.5 miles.. and we do walk there but usually take the bikes. Sometimes walk to the school and that is 2 miles. Didn’t you walk 5 miles up hill both ways to school when you were a kid?
