I have frostbitten feet

How about big dummy?

So it was a spur of the moment trip, and you didn’t have any gear with you? That’s how people die. Seriously, don’t do that again.

Thanks. Love you too.

I had a weird one 2 weekends ago, I was outside in ~28°F weather and had put on some fairly thin work gloves just to protect my hands from the wind. Within minutes my fingertips were numb and senseless, I took off the gloves and 10 minutes later they were fine.

My only theory is that there must have been something soaked into the old work gloves that was speeding the freezing of my fingers.

Anyway, good luck, and don’t ever do that again!!!

Nopers. I knew better, but let it progress to the point of no return.
Anyway, spring is here so hopefully I won’t have to tell a tale of falling down face-first into a campfire since **robert columbia **is buying us all a round of drinks in GQ.

Well, at least you still have your fingers and your nose.

But seriously, if I had done the same without plans to stay, and then decided to stay, but then realized I had no change of footwear or a way to dry out what I was wearing, time to hike back to the car.

No car. Hike back to civilization was too effortful. Had a campfire and all but it just wasn’t enough to dry everything out.
(Yes, I know I still have my nose because it is leaking like a sieve).

My brother lost his lower leg because of the stupids and diabetes,no cold involved… So I get a bit irritated at people who don’t tend to their feet properly…

Good wishes to your brother. I am beginning to understand the effects of diabetes myself through third-hand experience.
