    Skiing is a dance, and the mountain always leads.

    ....with layering obviously the key.

    One thing I swear by are my Boot Gloves.

    Cold days, and powder days (when your ski boot is riding inside/under snow, thus surrounded) these things make a noticeable difference for this guy. Kind of a pain in the butt getting used to getting them on....sort of a knack to it.

    First learned about them about 1990 or so from a JHAF stud who knew from freaking cold. Swore by 'em.

    Those things sound great..thanks for the link. Plus it will hide my boots which will cut down on the number of people who point at my boots and laugh...

    I would think most Ski shops in the valley stock them.

    Smootharc, I think you have extended my safe skiing range. I used to have big problems with cold fee when temps droped below 10-15 degrees. I took your advise and bought the boot glove; used them today. Very niiice! Its the real deal, really makes a difference. Next test, the zero degree temps tomorrow.
