"Hi, my name is Sheryl McGlochlin with CrazySheryl.com, and welcome to ExpertVillage.com. Today we're talking about enjoying the outdoors right in the middle of the dead of winter by walking and hiking. Now, it's important to know how to dress, or you will not enjoy this experience I can promise you. But we've talked about feet and how to take care of your feet by wearing Smart Wool Socks. Your hands are really important. Some people do great with gloves; other people need mittens, just depending on what you need to keep your hands warm. There are little hand warmers that you can put inside your gloves that will also keep your hands warm. The other thing that's really critical is to "think like an onion." That is a very important thought. Keep that in mind, because when you're dressing, you need to think like an onion. For instance, I am wearing this jacket, but when I really start to move a lot, I am going to get very hot. And so, I take my jacket off and instead of not knowing what to do with it, I just go ahead and put it around my waist and tie it, and I keep walking. But underneath my jacket I have two more layers of clothing, and they're thin. And you want to dress in thin layers and think like an onion."
