Tectonic History of the Transantarctic Mountains 2013

Hi, my name is Nick, I am from Pope John Paul II High School in Boca Raton, Florida and I am currently taking a Marine Science course. I was wondering what kind of clothes you wear when it is -30 to -40 degrees and windy? Thank you for your time.

I start with a base layer of cold gear Under Armour, then two layers of fleece pants and shirts. Then for the wind we put on insulated wind pants and a huge goose down jacket with fur around the hood to block out the wind. The boots are very heavy and very well insulated. By the time your done you have about 30 pounds of gear on to go outside.
