It's going to be cold here tonight - - 62. Coat time.

you sound like my mother! she said it was 39° down there the other morning, but went up to 77° during the day!

It was -26F here last night. I have been in -45 F with a wind that took it below -100 F. That's cold. It feels like someone is sticking needles in any exposed skin you may have and you don't want to inhale fast in those temps or your lungs can freeze. You get used to it though. I would rather take the cold then the heat any day.

Come up and we'll go ice fishing. Nothing like pulling 4-5 pound lake trout up through 3' of ice that looks like glass in -30 F weather.

Better yet, we could do 100 MPH across the flat on a snowmobile in -20 F. That'll get your attention.

In my opinion skiing is for greenies, if it doesn't involve combustable fuels, either internal or external, I'm not interested.

ya it's like 5 here with snow falling at 2" an hour. Snowmobile time!

Try standing at the top of a race course in -20F with only your long underwear and a race suit on. Its not fun wating for your turn to ski. Than you ski the first few gates with the wind chill around -50, and by the bottom your sweeting your back side off and out of breath.

Riding the sled is fun but it is no where near as cold as skiing.

It was -47 in yellowstone this morn. Thats a little cold for this time of the year.

Thanks for the invite, but I think I'll pass. I love to trout fish, but about 50* ABOVE is my minimial temperature for being out there. Man, I sure do love the WARM weather.

I didn't mean to offend, I was just saying that I like motor sports way better. Most of my friends ski. I live about 20 minutes from Bridger Bowl http://www.bridgerbowl.com/ and about 45 minutes from http://www.bigskyresort.com/ Come to the mountains and ride at 10,000 feet with about three feet of fresh powder. You will sweat plenty and then take off across a park at around a buck and you can get a little cold. We ride sleds here with the 162" long tracks with 2.5" paddles on them and 200 HP. If you don't you may as well leave it on the trailer. You can get by with less but it's not as fun.

I live 80 miles North of West Yellowstone.

that is where the thermostat is set on my furnace . Feels like walking into a suana after working all day in single digit temps!

Yeah, we troll the same lake in the summer in the boat. It's nice sipping a red beer and kicking back waiting for a strike.

Now that's MY kind of trout fishing.

Nocona, Texas; 11 miles from the Oklahoma border in between Wichita Falls and Gainesville. I just saw 1* on the thermometer in my buddies truck. It was 5* out side my house when I came in about twenty min. ago. Good God its cold. It only got down to 7 last year. I can't remember a time in my short lifespan that it has been this cold here, especially this early in the year. It usually doesn't get this cold till late Jan. and Early Feb. Even still snow on the ground after our little dusting on wed. Why can't we get like 10 inches or something to show all the fools around here what snow really is?
