There are now plenty of ways to bring your body back to a comfortable temperature for anyone who is frozen to death. For those who still enjoy being out on the mountain in icy temperatures and are reluctant to stray into one of the frequent heated party mushrooms in the ski resorts, the Heat Packs pocket warmers offer a good and, above all, inexpensive alternative to warm up again on really cold days.
Whether from Heat Paxx, Heat Factory or other suppliers, they are available for almost every purpose. For cold hands, toes or even as a body warmer. The small pillows are practical because they fit in pretty much any jacket pocket or backpack, making them a constant companion in an emergency. The pillows contain a mixture of iron powder, activated charcoal, salt, water, cellulose and vermicullite. When the cushion is removed from the packaging, an exothermic reaction is triggered thanks to the iron powder in combination with the oxygen. Heat is generated.
The cushions then retain the heat for 5 to 8 hours. The toe warmers on some models are particularly practical. These are simply stuck onto the ski socks and cannot slip out of place. The thin cushions hardly get in the way in the ski boot itself and after a few minutes you don't even notice that you have something stuck to your foot. Thanks to the little warmers, you can hopefully avoid many a trip under the oh-so-dreaded party mushroom even in icy temperatures and continue your planned activities for much longer.
I personally like to use the toe warmers in particular when the temperatures are very icy again and it gets cold when taking photos or filming. You can now buy these little gadgets for a few euros in almost every sports store and from our partner store Bergzeit.
