Sub zero, break out the down alternative Land's End parka and ski pants. Synthetic socks next to the skin, wool blend socks and "Mickey Mouse Boots". Always keep an extra pair of dry socks in an inside pocket--if your feet are wet, you're not going to get much done.
Oh yeah, I installed telephone service outside for over 20 years for Ma Bell. Yes, climbed telephone poles, carried that 28' ladder, worked outside in all kinds of weather. I really, really hate mud, worse than I dislike winter and getting cole
But, if you're just going to be around the campfire, watch out for the synthetic fabrics, please.
