:surprised:Brrrrrrr....It Was Freakin Freezing Today, So Cold That:

[John-Edmonton]

It Was Freakin Freezing Today, I was so Cold that when I went into my house, the temperature in the house immediately dropped 10 degrees. It was cloudy for most of the day, but the sun did appear a couple of hours before it set and got dark out. I hit about 5 snow hills during the last couple of days. They have been busy with lots of activity..... people, young and old. Tracks everywhere in all directions of sleds, toboggans and snowboards. My weapon of trash reduction was the ACE 250.

I had to put one of those hand warmers on the batteries so they wouldn't freeze and drain. I also put on that camo cover for extra insulation. I lasted about 5 hours outside, and so did my batteries.

Below are the good, the bad and the ugly. I hunted with no discrimination, and dug all the good sounding targets.

Good finds John on those hills.
We had two days of blizzards here with temp now sitting in mid- twenties.

That's a great reason to be wearing head phones! I've had the opposite problem. It's too hot to go out lately, unless I get out early.

You're a glutton for punishment Snow Feller. You must have antifreeze for blood. Do you get your transfusions at work?

[John-Edmonton]

No no no! A good shot of scotch solves the problem!

Was that -20 before or after the wind chill John? I'm amazed that the ACE can hack that weather. I've only gone out in say -6 -7 at the most, without battery warmers. I keep a spare charged set in a pocket close to my chest for heat. Nice haul B.T.W., that's a lot of snow digging.
