Keeping your neck warm

[Nick]

What do you use?

 

[o3jeff]

Turtle-fur or a smart wool neck gator.

 

[o3jeff]

Or zip up the coat to the top.

I've always had turtle fur as well. It is annoying though when you try to keep it up by stuffing it under the nose on the mask.

Every time I've tried a face mask I've had issues with icing

Zip the coat/jacket up.

Were is the option for nothing? I get annoyed at anything extra on my neck/face even on the coldest of days.

 

[St. Bear]

I like to get a nice fox, like the lady on the right in this picture.

Warm and fashionable.

Powderfish neck gaiter... as warm as the turtle fur but more breathable, doesn't get all crudded up. On the very coldest day, a super-thin balaclava underneath.

Where's the nothing choice? Besides having zip neck fleece and the collar on my coat I don't wear anything else around my neck. I bought a balaclava years ago and used it once.

Surprised some of you guys don't have anything. Doesn't your nose / upper cheeks get cold?

Goggles cover most of that and I'm sporting a beard for the winter.

i answered gator. BUT i've found the past few years i'm more tolerant of temps and only whip out the gator on windy or very cold days.

Why? You asked about keeping the neck warm, not nose and cheeks. That's face.

Balaclava. Is that the same thing as a gaiter? I would have been screwed without it this past Mon and Tue.

ForTremblant and other areas which regularly have windchills in excess of 25 below zero i wear a "full head cover" heat exchanger style Mask ( the copper insert converts retains warm air and converts cold air to warm ) by Polarguard $ 55 ,

I wear it under my helmet it extends down the neck in to the jacket farther than a standard neck gaiter and together with my goggles i have zero skin exposure

on normally cold days say between 10 degrees and 20 degrees i have a Half style version of this same mask which covers the the lips and mouth aand neck .

i've tried em all over 35 yrs seirius , Turtle fur u name it these heat exchanger styles are the BEST . I 've skied Tremblant at 75 below zero windchill and recently 40 below windchill and these puppy's ROCK !!

Opps blew it it PolarWrap not Polarguard

+1. A REAL ski jacket, with a fleece inside collar. Can go up to my nose if I want it to. Has a hood to handle the back if I really need it.

 

[BenedictGomez]

I turtle fur it up

 

[BMac]

I use a hood over helmet for those cold chair rides. Besides that a zipped up fleece and a beard.
