Johnny I,
Hiking up and skiing down the back side of Mount Saint Helens
April 14th, 2007

I'm a long time user of the Heat Factory Warmers. Earlier this year, I joined a mountaineering club and have been using Heat Factory products like crazy due to the extreme cold we face each time we head up the mountain. Usually, I just take Hand and Toe Warmers, but this time I also brought some 20 hour Large Warmers since we were spending the night at the base of Mt. Saint Helens. I took the advice of the dude at our local sporting goods store and put a couple of those Heat Factory 20 hour warmers into my sleeping bag.  When we awoke, everything had a layer of ice on it.  But not me…with those warmers in my sleeping bag, I wasn't cold at all. At 5:30 am, we started our ascent and I used the Heat Factory Toe Warmers and Hand Warmers and stayed comfortable the entire journey.

The morning would have been brutally cold if I didn’t have those Heat Factory products.  Thesun eventually emerged from the clouds and our day became righteously beautiful. Snowboarding down the back side of Mt. Saint Helens was truly awesome!  I wish I could do this every weekend!
