You’re crushing it out on the winter alpine tundra.
If you can’t feel it, it’s already worse than you think.
Frostbite doesn’t care how fit you are.
It cares how wet, windy and stubborn you get.
Cold is uncomfortable. Frostbite is permanent.

"Dowling’s frostbite was so severe that a doctor had to amputate both legs below the knees. He also lost one hand and part of another, according to Prichard, who lived in Puposky, Minn., and died January 2025.

"Yellow Medicine County offered to pay a farmer to care for Dowling, but he asked commissioners instead to pay for him to attend Carleton College. Dowling went on to become a teacher, state legislator and more, including the founder of what is now Dowling Elementary School in Minneapolis."

The Yellowstone Trail was one of the first transcontinental auto routes. For a time, its headquarters were in Minneapolis.

Weather has a new infographic about dangers of extreme cold.

It mentions well known Hypothermia and Frostbite but has added… Frostnip.

Frostnip?! Not a swig of alcohol but a stage before Frostbite. Yellow yet flexible skin?

New to this Canadian. Anyone heard of this before?

An infographic about cold injuries. It includes definitions and first aid tips for hypothermia, frostbite, and frostnip. Illustrations of a person with symptoms are shown, along with safety precautions and steps for treatment.

Her reason? A need for a…

Ah, yes, the riveting tale of a rusty bus taking its final lap around the ice block, because apparently nothing says like freezing your toes off in a clunky metal box. 🚍❄️ Meanwhile, Atlas Obscura distracts us with overpriced jaunts to places with actual warmth and stories, because who wouldn't want to pay extra for memories? 🌴💸

On the border of Finland and Norway in the eastern Pöyrisjärvi Wilderness Area in February 2024, during a two-week solo winter hike. This was a tough hike, with temperatures dropping below -35°C, accompanied by slight winds that led to my first-ever frostbite.

Our tent in a winter storm. High winds are especially dangerous during winter hikes, as they efficiently remove body heat, which can lead to frostbite or even hypothermia. They can also affect visibility, making navigation and movement difficult. If the winds get too strong, pitching a tent might become impossible, so it's important to be aware of the situation.
