Keeping Warm Hands on a Ski Lift

Skiing is a fun activity to do in the winter, but what do you do about your hands when you are sitting on the ski lift and they are getting cold? There are a few things you can do to keep them warm.

One of the things you can do is to keep your hand close to your body. You can even tuck your hands and arms close to the body to keep the hands warm naturally. The body heat from the rest of the body will keep the hands warm. You can also wear a thick glove with an inner layer that will aid in keeping the hands warm.

Do not rub the hands when they get cold. Frostbite sets in very quickly in the hands because the capillaries are smaller. Gently massage the hands to increase the blood flow and raise the arms to about chest height. Bring the arms down close to the body to get the arms and hands warm again. This will allow the hands, as well as the arms, to remain warm while you are on the ski lift. As soon as you get off the ski lift, go inside the ski lodge to get warm near the fireplace.

The heavy layers of many different rayons and cotton help it snug, which tells your body to comfort itself. That makes it stay warm.
