Worth looking at snowboarding mitts. I have a pair of Bonfire ones which are excellent. Also possum wool (often mixed with merino) gloves are very good. You can get possum wool beanies and socks too. The socks are great for in the tent.

Thanks Robin that's very interesting, I'll check it out. Meanwhile, We (Wiltshire) are back in plus temp figures now! So I guess the next obvious question is, will Scotland in May require Mitts!?

LOL!! :wink:

Is that the track over to the larig leacaich from meannach?

It is indeed, Sir! This picture makes it more obvious:

The warmest gloves I know of are Dachstein mitts - too hot for me except in very cold conditions though. I'm still using a pair that I bought in 1975. I believe that they are still available.
