re: Cold Weather Clothing Recs (Work in Alaska in November)

Will not be as bad as you think. Down So. the Gulf of Alaska helps moderate temps. In the late 80's I worked on the P/L in Dec and Jan north of Fairbanks (mile post 200). Average temp while I was up there was -22f. Low -40+ high +15. Alyeska p/l provided us with special issue parka and bibs. If you can find a set at surpluus store in Alaska they are the best money can buy. Make this trip an adventure if you have never been to Alaska. Any off time you have explore and enjoy.
