Blood, Sweat and Gears: A GTAM West ADVenture
- Thread starter Lightcycle
- Start date
When I used to live in Toronto, we took many snowboard trips out west and sitting on the chairlift in -20°C in Panorama felt waaay warmer than sitting on a chairlift in -20°C at Tremblant or any of the hills in the Eastern townships...
And pretty much everyone who visits us from Toronto remarks that the dry cold feels warmer than damp cold.
Also the snow is so much better in a dry climate. It's called "champagne powder" and when you faceplant on skis/snowboard in this stuff, nothing sticks on you. Almost impossible to make snowballs out of the stuff.
The first time you fall down in the wet snow out east and you're literally drenched from head to toe.
Except the humidity is the same at -20 anywhere you go no difference.

Well damn you and your sciencey words.
You're upsetting a big applecart of traditional feelings, not to mention every weather reader's job, "It's minus 6 out today but "FEELS LIKE" plus 21."
