Wow. Cold in the desert.
 
9 degs. Our eggs froze and exploded. All water frozen. Nuts. I like being "city folk". Camping out here is a test. I slept in a down jacket inside my down bag. Nice view!

Where's the white stuff?

You hiked eggs into the backcountry?

That's nuts!

The only non-dehydrated thing I hike in is beer. And I drink it before it freezes. ;)

I would not want to camp in 9deg. weather. Low 20s is still comfy, but after that it just is a mess.

Good Luck!!!

We have a base camp going. We are hiking out every morning. My feet are dead clumps:)

29 degrees in my driveway this morning. I thought the heated seats in my TDI Jetta would be as useless as tits on a boar here in Phoenix, but I guess I was wrong.

It was 41 this morning in So Cal, I put on a new pair of mechanic's gloves to keep my finners from freezing.

I thought it was global WARMING? Now I'm so confused......

Pool water at my place is 53, so it is not going to freeze.

It was very cold in Vegas at the end of CES Friday & Saturday. It was warmer in Toronto when I got home. Here is a pic of snow in the mountains from the 21st floor of the Venetian looking SW.

We're approximately 7 miles from the beach.

It was 15C here on Sunday (just under 60F). Normally in mid January we're well below freezing. Unfortunately it went back to normal yesterday :(

One of my garden hoses ruptured a day or two ago. The outdoor recording thermometer said it was a low of 27 degrees in the middle of the night. I'm at 1,500 above MSL and about 30 miles inland from the beach.

0 in Minneapolis this morning, put on a flannel and went to work.

My shop has no heater so I backed my car up to my desk! It stayed warm for a little while.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1358291510.jpg

22 in NE PA. Long sleeve Watkins Glen T shirt and a hoodie. Went for 3 mile walk.
No gloves or wool cap until 0, they retain too much heat.
