black diamond gloves.

we are heading to new hampshire next weekend to see my brother john and his family. he's rented out a house, and hopefully we'll get some mountain time in. last year in maine, it was so cold, my gloves just wouldn't cut it. my hands were frozen / numb / useless within a couple hours and made for skiing the rest of the day very difficult.
this year though, i have purchased some new gloves from black diamond equipment. they are supposed to be good to sub-zero temperatures, so hopefully they hold up!

With premium construction, fresh moto style, and a sleek, under-the-cuff design, the Women's Legend is Black Diamond's premier women's ski glove, offering versatile, top-notch performance for any part of the mountain. Outfitted with a waterproof and breathable Gore-Tex insert with XCR Product Technology and PrimaLoft One insulation, the Legend gives you warm, waterproof comfort and incredible dexterity without unnecessary bulk.

hopefully they get here on time. aren't they pretty?
