For us, this is doable. We cache twelve months a year. This year, it has been a little tougher. There are usually multiple warm-ups in the area during each winter giving good caching days and removing the snow base. Besides, the normal average temperature is above freezing by now. This year has been different. We've only had one big warm-up, a few quick passes beyond freezing, and the ground has been covered in snow for most of two months.
Despite the colder weather and lots of snow, we have 17 days with caches found. During that time we've found 74 caches including a mix of multis and puzzles. We've attended two events and found an earthvirtual. We have only resorted to park-and-grabs twice. We've cached in temperatures between -6 and 30 degrees with a few really windy days. I've really enjoyed this challenge. It's been a great way to shorten the winter. With longer days and (hopefully) warmer temperatures, it should be fairly easy to add the last 13 days.
