>>2692344>you seem to be from above the arctic circle,Yeah, born and raised up here
>can you give me a realistic estimate on how hard winter is for you in terms of /out/ ?Not really an issue, we get periods that get real fucking cold, just stay inside for the worst of it.
The biggest issue with the winter here, are vehicles not starting, and issues arising due to shit freezing and breaking, including infrastructure, but usually only minor stuff.
Going /out/ here at this time of the year does require a lot of knowledge, and you should always pack enough to get through shtf scenario, as weather can turn really quickly, and the forecast is suddenly completely off.
You will die if you get caught off guard without being prepared, or at least run a pretty high risk, but just use your head and you'll be fine.
>how do you deal with darkness, do you just slap on a headlamp ?/out/ is pretty cozy in the dark period, that and alcohol is how I deal with the dark.
Headlamp and alcohol, makes it bearable.
>does it even bother you much anymore ?That is one thing that actually gets worse over time, at least for me, have lived almost all my life in the north (@70 degrees north), the darkness does feel worse now than when I was younger.
