I am looking for some good options to keep the face warm in cold weather especially when windy. I currently use bandana or half buff for face with a hat.. This works in many conditions, but does not fully cover the face. I either am wearing glasses or if I have my hard contacts in, I wear safety glasses to protect the eyes from drying out if wearing contacts.
I was doing a search and found these Cold Avenger face masks. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002VWJVA0...75FOMN6Z&psc=0
That along with a set of ski goggles would fully cover face. Combine with a hat and buff if really cold.
The problem is 1) keeping everything covered and 2) avoiding fogging up the lenses.
Anyone have experience with something like this and goggles? Is fogging still a factor? Is it overkill to have a mask if not sub zero? Currently I hike a lot in the 10-20F range, sometimes with wind. I am also thinking if I do a thru hike and start in GA in February is something like this needed if you are hiking all day long.
experiences with this mask? other options? recommendations on goggles?
Thanks for your recommendations.
