In 14' and 15' we went down to -30F for a few days. My well froze in 14' from February thru April into May. Had to haul 50 gallons of water a few times a week from the flowing well in town. The problem was driving over the line to get in the garage. That won't happen again!

That is a beautiful picture!!

14 and 15 were brutal here too. We had one time where for a week straight it was below zero, most days not getting above -10 and nights in the -30s.

I have been here 3 years and each time, Feb dipped into negative temps every single night, even last winter which was the mildest so far.

That's the first thing I do. I get text alerts sent to my phone for every tracking#. If it gets stuck somewhere for a couple of days I do a reply text of HELP & & they send a phone# in reply. I call that # & tell them I want to open an investigation. I give them my tracking # & very shortly I'll get a phone call from where ever it got stuck. They've already found it, flagged it & they just about hand carry it from that point.

Good advice. Thanks! I've never had a problem before. I called and opened a case # a few minutes ago.

You guys would freak at the temps that @KentA and I experience

It did change kind of fast, eh Sloth?

I didn't even have time to wash the longjohns I wore last winter.

Funny enough the coldest i have ever been was in NC. Got caught in a blizzard in the mountains, totally unprepared. Barely made it out alive. The temp was probably only 30ish.

More people die of hypothermia in the 40s up here than any other temp. Its amazing really...when you are unprepared, heck even 50 could be deadly.

One of my friends got frostbite on that hike in NC. It was very scary.

I can't say I can recall the coldest I've ever been. But I can remember numerous times working outdoors in winter, in Upstate NY. I was a pipefitter/welder, and the problem with welding is that the stuff we wear for welding isn't very warm. Usually, its thermal underwear, work clothes, and a thin leather welding jacket. You can't wear any down filled clothes. They are too flammable. I used to love 'playing' in the snow though; especially XC skiing. I never was cold doing that. In fact, it was easy to get overheated, even in sub freezing weather; and the last thing you'd want to do is break a sweat. I've XC skied in temps close to 0 degrees, in little more than thermal underwear, polyester pants, and a light jacket.

It's pretty much the same vape...
I had one clone with crunchy 510 threads - solved by forcing it onto a Reo. Another was fine, and the machining on the rest of it is quite good. The drip tip is a cheaper material - but I don't use that drip tip anyway. I'm glad I have an authentic - but it really is a good clone...

Just curious...where did you purchase the clone? Thank you!

Yeah, i snowshoed to Avalanche Lake one time when it was -12. I was warm the whole way (you should have seen me though. Heated gloves, no skin shoeing anywhere, like something out of a movie)

I used to snowshoe once in a while. Although I preferred 'bush whacking' with wide XC skis, and going off trail. I didn't like groomed trail or track skiing. I used to ski the same single track trails I mountain biked in the summer.

I have still not given x country a good chance. I think i will rent some skis and try it soon. I also want to try fat tire bikes.

You should try both. You live in the perfect place for it. There are hundreds of great single track trails in the Adirondacks.

For sure. Where i live i can actually walk out my door, put on skis and just go across the lake and hit an extensive trail network. Drive 10 mins and there are about 10 other options

This is me, one day, several years ago.

Nice. I love days like that. No wind so the snow is on all the branches. Today is much like that. And the snow has stopped so it's just beautiful outside.

Yes, I loved days like that. As I recall, it wasn't super cold that day. Probably mid 20s. Hence, no hat. Just jeans, fleece pull over, and probably just a t shirt underneath.

Brrrr! After seeing these pics, I want to kick up the heater a notch or two. A fresh 46 degrees here at 6am.

The coldest place I was ever in was in Germany in the army. It got down in the minus's, and I had to walk about 3 miles to work each morning. I was young then and could take it better, plus I usually had enough alcohol in my system for anti freeze. LOL!.

 

[Rule62]

I was truly a split personality about snow and cold, when I lived up north. I absolutely hated working in it, and even the process of getting ready and driving to work. But I couldn't wait for the weekends, and prayed for snow, so I could go play in it.

I actually got it from Focalecig - at the time I think they were the first site that had them, but now all the chinese sites carry it.
And a couple of them have a "beauty ring" for it too, like this.

Just curious...where did you purchase the clone? Thank you!
