Put a lid on it! Avoiding hypothermia on a budget
With snow prognosis for parts of Traveler Country tomorrow, and holiday music shivering through TVs and radios everywhere, it’s time to talk about keeping keen.
No matter what you do outdoors, if you are cold and wet, it’s miserable. With some interests intent on selling you this or that high tech miracle unravelling (usually quite pricey as well), here are a few tips for keeping warm and dry, (or at least wet and comfortable) even on a small budget.
