The coldest I've seen here is -31°f.

I sledded once in -40 weather and said never again!! It was in Madawaska Ontario and we left from my bud's cottage and made it to Whitney. All 3 of us had a touch of frostbite somewhere on our faces in short order. We sat at the restaurant for a couple hrs before we headed out again. It had warmed to -25/-30 so it was tolerable at least at those temps.

Nice.  I haven’t actually seen that “rubber side up” traversing technique being used before.

Whats the deal with the sleds pulling he truck?

the rubber side up tecunique is the one I use when rolling stuck sleds out of a trench and down the hill 

you see that a lot in forest service lots . guys park and camp for a few days get 3 foot of snow around them ice under the tires they did not pull in with 4wd locked in . every one has 25 foot trailers hooked up.  quick yank with 2 sleds with 4 guys on them usually gets tvgem going

what if you had to pick between riding in -30 at night or get in a warm bed with Nancy Pelosi which one would you pick? :D 

 

I'd do the world a favor and make sure I was the only one to live to tell the story !!!!!!11
