Hi John, yes, you are correct! It was only 10 degrees when I checked the thermometer outside of the machine shop at 8am. And it never got above 15.

I have to say, I got incredibly lucky. I only shot about 15 frames all day, spending most of my energy shooting HD video. So I was lugging a very large Sachtler tripod, a 30 lb HDTV camera, and my still gear in a waist belt down the tracks.

Definitely worth temporary numbness in the fingers and toes however!

Thanks!!
Stephen
