Discussion: Yikes!

That outing sounds worse than your Covid symptoms were.

For sure it was! turns out -31 is pretty cold on the feet/legs after you've been in the water up to your waist. I actually got a little concerned about my one foot. By the time I was thawing them out when we got back my left was forming some alarmingly dark splotchy patterns...

Decent exercise though... bushwhacking with a pack and heavy toboggan in tow always seems to find a way to turn into a full body workout/sweatfest

Gah! Sounds like a great workout except for the risk of losing body parts. It was a bold choice to go swimming that day, lol.
