Montanans losing their minds at -40 for a one day event... meanwhile in Fairbanks
Arctic blast
- Thread starter Stocker
- Start date
I was puckering up 5" of seat the whole way from Clearwater to the Dearborn River that night but had to totally play it off so the wife didn't completely lose her cookies. When we got home and lying-in bed trying to get to sleep, she asked me how I was so calm...I just chuckled and told her I slept the whole way. I'm not sure she got a wink of sleep that night

I know it's small potatoes compared to you Montana people, but the land I hunt over on the Bama line will see a low of 15 this weekend, and won't get above freezing for more than 48 hours. When you're 100 miles from the gulf of Mexico, 15 degrees is almost hard to comprehend.

Suicide rates are virtually identical for Montana/Alaska.

Already knocking on the door of the mileage warranty on the jeep so I don’t think I’m gonna do that.
Might head your way a couple days early or try to go get it done on public land archery here a few more times.

Should’ve flown out on Wednesday, but I was feeling under the weather and I won’t risk exposing my fellow citizens to illness like that.
What do you do

You must not have much faith in the jeep?
Those Montanans and their wind-chill and two day cold snaps to make everyone think they endure super cold conditions. It will be t-shirt weather by the weekend. Oooooh burr.
Folks in Fairbanks probably turning their noses down at you on the coast in the same way
So far it's not bad. Daughter said most roads were fine. The snow stopped falling but it's still moving. The wind doesn't seem like it picked up much but it's early. -4 and wind chill of -30. Dropping a few more degrees tonight. Bad part is I went out to push the one drift away from the garage door for the kid and somehow lost a pin connecting my plow blade to the ATV frame! I'll stick a gutter spike in there until the snow melts next week. Maybe I'll find it when the snow is gone and I'm not freezing!
