The latest item for the Expedition Storage:
Pairs of rain resistant walking trousers for both of us, courtesy of Mountain Warehouse. Big enough to be worn over other trousers, because layers. It's all about layers. I don't remember ever having cold legs, but there again it's been a decade or more since I walked about in cold weather for any length of time and even then it was nowhere near -20, so these will no doubt be absolutely necessary.
They're elasticated too. Perfect for people with shelves instead of waists.
Rather fetching, I think you'll agree.
I do already have a Thinsulate hat, but it's not as snug as this, not as well lined, and likely to get a bit soggy if it rains. This new one will fit easily under a hood, or even two hoods since our complementary Hurtigruten expedition jackets also have one.
