    +18* heat wave, everything must be melting. Spruce is warming the ice cream. C61F2923-D5E8-44C1-BBB0-B656091EB089.jpeg C1BDDDEE-BEB8-4438-A037-FF9E398C89B7.png

    The Cold Avenger Balaclava does. The face mask covers most of my ears . it is just right when I wear my beaver , ( mushers/trappers) style hat.
    I like the Cold Avenger because ( one reason anyway) it doesn't freeze to my beard and stash. . instead, it will grow an ice horn out the bottom vents
    19°F.
    Poplar puttering along.

    I also wear/have multiple head coverings. There is not a one that meets all needs. For bitter cold, low to no work Cabelas outfitter, looks like a balaclava, but it is 3/8 to 1/2 thick, flex's and adjusts. For working I wear a thin Mountain Hard Gear--Airshield Elite, it does not freeze hard as it has breathing holes and dries quick. I also use a variety of neck gaiters, with different length, materials and thickness, as well as knit hats. Down to Smartwool merino balaclavas I would imaging that there at least 30+ different pieces that I have in my small action packer that I keep in my truck. When it come down to it you really need a wide variety to meet cold weather needs.

    31F still here. Let the stove burn out last night, it was 77F in the house when I went to bed. Cleaned out the staples and nails from the stove this morning, and have a light load of pine and oak coming to life.

    I feel for all you blokes up in the northern hemisphere.
    It's 58F outside here at midnight and dead calm, 75 inside with windows and doors wide open trying to cool the house down before the sun rises again. Forecast to be 99F today.
