    You need better gloves my friend. Or maybe mittens.

    I?ll try and find you a link to some of my favorites. I?ve worked outside all day in this type of cold and my hands were fine.

    I've got one stored away if I need, as does the neighbor. Thanks.

    You're right. I was wearing thin cotton gloves under some cheapo Mechanix gloves. I'm interested in something that has some amount of dexterity for cold like this though, so please send links. Two years ago I spent $100 on gloves in the middle of elk season to try and stay warm. I've got wool gloves and synthetic mittens from OR, and neither are as warm as I'd like. The mittens are okay as long as you're moving, but they are very delicate, so kind of worthless for hunting.
