Sell me a balaclava

[Pucky Freak]

Here are the main attributes I'm looking for:
1. Protection from cold and wind, especially for the nose
2. Doesn't get overly soaked from breath moisture
3. Able to use a tube call without too much hassle

Firstlight tundra balaclava, maybe?

Even if it's mildly cold, my nose runs like a faucet. I've found no good solution for this other than just let it soak my beard and neck gaiter

Want to be warm, wear a balaclava, they did well with breath moisture, there is a reason a lot snowsports people wear them. Skip the one's from a hunting company and get a generic brand.

I worn one during last years hunt in Colorado when the temps got into single digit, kept me warm no problem. Keep the nose and face protected, no problem. I didn't have any problems with moisture, once the temps warmed up all moisture evaporated and you would just pull it down like a mask to be able to call.
On a side note that I find humorous, the same one that I used in Colorado, a business in Arizona is making employees wear it to prevent the spread of covid-19. Probably because they have these in stock and not masks. I was wearing it at 8 degrees, I couldn't imagine wearing it at 90.

Get one of these and a neck gator, it will solve both issues!

I have the same problem as you with the runny nose and soaked face mask. I just gave up and wear something like the first lite gator and wrap it from just below my bottom lip to above the back of my head. I grew up on a ski resort though so numb face is just something I grew up with. If it is to cold to handle their are some made for skiing with small holes in the mouth and a nose hole.
