The record-setting ranger reveals his go-to gear and hacks for surviving winter --
| Cold-Weather Carpe Diem: Adventure Like Polar Explorer Eric Larsen So far, 2018 has kept much of the country shivering. The last choruses of "Auld Lang Syne" swiftly gave way to record-low temperatures throughout the country-not to mention the East Coast's dreaded bomb cyclone, the sub-50-degree wind chills plaguing North Dakota and Minnesota, and the snowstorms pummeling states as far south and sunny as Florida. The bitter cold shows few signs of relenting—and as any outdoor-loving adventurer can attest, you can only hole up with hot cocoa for so long. When it comes to getting out there and braving those Arctic blasts, it pays to take cues from the only person to ever summit the North Pole, the South Pole, and Mount Everest within a single year.
