Now that is impressive -- how did you rig the visor/helmet dealio, Dave?

Or if it's Ski Goggles, what are you using as a barrier for breathing in and out? Always looking for the best solution there since asthma an issue with the cold weather.

After the dissapointment with exploding zipper on the Gore booties, I looked for other solutions to keep my feet warm. I found these generic neoprene socks at a surplus store, and for the price,($15), figured they were worth a shot.

Worn with a light pair of sport socks, the fit inside my shoes was very snug, but my feet stayed nice and warm.
I'm thinking I will just go and buy a pair of shoes one or two sizes bigger for the winter and wear the neoprene socks coupled with regular or arctic socks for really cold conditions.
