Winter Preparation?

[Bomber]

Sleep nude, use the can everyday, bring a bunch of big baby diaper holding safety pins to hold your stuff up in the tent.  Get the old black airmattress.  Bring a book to read.  Get some good caribeeners from the Q,  In Coppermine (Kugluktuk), we used only dry weapons, CLP and any other liquid turns to frozen solid glue.  Dry is the best way to go up there, don;t worry about rust since there is basically no liquid, even machine gun barrels are ice cold after about 2 minutes.  Pour all liquid fuels with your winter mitts on, if it is -50 outside, all the liquid at the POL point that hasn't turned to stone will also be -50, when it touches your hands, they turn white and the skin falls off immediately, it is like Mr Wizard and the hotdogs he used to get the kids to smash with hammers.  Bungy cords lose their "Bungy" after about -35, they stretch out, but never unstretch.  Bring a bunch of para cord with bowlines tied in each end.  Remove the trigger guards from the weapons so they can be used with Arctic mitts on, nothing is worse than "slow rate" on the c 9 when you have taken off your gloves to fit your finger in the trigger.
