" Hi! I’m Lachland Clarke on behalf of Expert Village. I would like to invite you to visit our website at www.teamclarke.org. One of the toughest things to keep warm on your body is your hands and there are a lot of different mitts and gloves out there. Nobody really that does much mushing uses a glove that is an outer layer; it is usually a mitt. I prefer this pair of beaver mitts. They are really hard to come by and it is hard to find somebody that makes them but if you can, these are by far the warmest mitt for your hands. I’ve worn these in 45 below and my hands have been fine. I wear a light polypropylene glove liner underneath them and that is the only thing I have. The palm is blue side, the back is pure beaver. They are my favorite piece of gear for keeping my hands warm. "
