[nabs-l] Winter Ear Protection

[Scott Spaulding]

I have some behind the head ear muffs that don't seem to block much sound,
but they seem to do a good job of keeping my ears warm, once they are in the
right place.

Hello all,

This year I moved to Boulder, CO, after spending my entire life living
in Phoenix, Arizona where the coldest winter days get down to 40
degrees. I've been learning a lot over the past few weeks about
traveling in the cold and snow and have actually found it to be a lot
less daunting than I expected! The only thing I haven't quite figured
out yet is how to keep my ears warm without losing too much
environmental sound. When traffic sounds are already muffled by snow I
want to be able to hear as much of what remains as I can for good
orientation, but I also don't want to freeze my ears off!

Suggestions?
Arielle
