Later today [livejournal.com profile] lemur_catta and I will head up to Collingwood for the fist ski weekend of the season. Fortunately they have had plenty of snow in the last week but the forecast is a bit daunting:
Today :   Sunny. Wind north 20 km/h. High minus 16. Extreme wind chill minus 35. Risk of frostbite.

Tonight :   Clear. Low minus 26.

Saturday :   Sunny. High minus 16.

Sunday :   Periods of snow. Low minus 17. High minus 5.


It is almost as bad here: -22 dry bulb, -33 with the wind chill.

I have skied in these sort of temperatures before but I confess that I am not sure that a first time out in the relatively unfrequented Kolapore Swamp Wilderness is prudent. A broken ski or a broken leg could be fatal.
