Yeah, in retrospect I made a rookie mistake by underestimating my glove needs for 9 degrees. Even with the poagies I should have used my 45Nrth Sturmfist gloves with warmers. In all honesty if I used just those gloves with warmers like 2 weeks ago (before the poagies) I wouldn’t have lasted as long.
