You have learned everything there is to know about clothes, ventilating systems and the dressing in layers. I have seen many people that had to borrow clothes from me since they were dressed in clothes that had been the inn product within city limits, but did not stand what they promised. I am sure that you are the person that would only buy a product from a company that actually has test pilots testing their equipment. I take such products out by -40 cel. and I test and use them professionally. So trust me, to really be sure that the company that sells the products also satisfies your quality needs, make sure they have a person who has actually tested their products in real life. It is your life that depends on it.


It is nice to carry around a GPS and a receiver-transmitter. The other day I heard a story from a friend of mine, a rescuer, about a guy who took his whole family out into the wilderness, they got lost and were

running around for two days until they where found. Cell phones did not have coverage in this area. The good man had a GPS with him. He knew how to turn on the power button; he did not know how to operate it. They where lucky enough and did get rescued, but some are not so lucky. I will not bore you with statistics since I presume that you also think that one death is as horrible as a hundred. When I take someone out with me my first question is - "Can you read the compass"? Out of 20 people that go out 4 actually can really read the compass.

If you are out practicing, go out for the first time with a guide that knows the area. The guide will have valuable tips and tricks for you, and it is actuallyt worth to pay attention. And after all you are paying the guide. Get something out of it, a guide is more than a helping hand a guide carries wisdom!!...In the cold you have to keep warm, trust me, the winds are a factor that you can’t underestimate and a blizzard can come out of nowhere.

Here is something for practice to get you on the right track. Have something warm to drink, something sweet, some chocolate bars. No matter how short your tour is - it requires a compass and a sleeping bag. Tell people where you are going, tell them about optional routes you might be taking if the weather turns. Make sure people expect you to arrive. They might be the ones that have to look for you. If they don’t know how to keep from freezing - have extra clothing, wear loose layers of clothing. Your vital organs should be protected more than just casual, they keep your blood flowing. Always have a alternative for everything, you have your ski along good take your snowshoes as well!
