Hi Virginia, I have a limit as far as temp goes...if it's more than -10...I don't go out.
But when I do, and I want to stay toasty...I wear my cartharts. Not very fashionable, but they get the job done. However, I wouldn't want to stop on the trail and try get on again without a crane. ;) I went to a ski shop and bought one of those little beany things to wear under my helmet. It keeps my ears warm, but I find my chin gets cold. So something like the link Judy sent with the fleece face thing looks interesting. Though fleece alone doesn't do a thing for me, I need something wind proof with the fleece and then I think that would be perfect. I have my little mother knitting me pure wool socks even as we speak. My boots are big enough that I can put a few layers of socks in. My hands are what give me grief though, so if someone has some great glove ideas that they find work. Please pass on the info... AND if you're riding in the cold, you have to have a place for Gat and Orri to dry off. Let them have a good roll in the snow and then pop them in a shelter with a wool cooler on to help them dry. But my hands...I'm interested in hearing any suggestions for good gloves... Wanda
