Mine has done about -40F with no trouble. However, the -60F seen out at my folks' place southwest of Thunder Bay would be questionable.

It was in MN. My parents live in line with Hudson Bay, so they get the SHAFT when it gets cold - flat ground+Arctic air=COLD!

I learned that the white tight undies are the best in this weather, as wearing anytihing less insulating results in numbness and lots of pain "down there".

I wore a t shirt this afternoon... a balmy almost chilly 68 degrees. it'll drop 33 degrees overnight though, and then be in the 60s again tomorrow.
