-10F on the west slope of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in New Mexico. Our boots froze to the ground over night. Knee deep snow, too. That was a rough hunt.

Originally posted by sendit View PostBeen to Alberta and Saskatchewan several times chasing deer. It's always been cold, -25 is common. When it's 0 the locals call it a heat wave. I remember one time I was dressed heavily and looked like a giant Michelin man and fell down and a &%$#@ time getting back up on my feet.

Quail hunted in the Panhandle when it was 15, with a 20-25 mph wind. Recollect that it wasn't too terrible, only because we were moving constantly and I wore a good hat. That wide-brimmed Stetson seemed to really help break the wind and keep ears warm even though they were exposed.
Duck hunted on Lake Tawakoni in north Texas one time when we had to break ice to set up the decoys. Guess it was in the teens. Wasn't too bad, since we were in a blind and mostly out of the wind, but just sitting there between retrieves got cool pretty quick.
