YHC entered the gloom this am expecting small numbers due to the National Championship game the previous evening and due to the 25 degree temperatures, but as the pax soon discovered, the cold is really only a mental block once you start moving. So many pax let the weather make their morning decisions for them, when truly we have more control over our comfort than the pax takes credit for. In fact most left this morning feeling as though they were too warm.
Conditions: 25 degrees, dry and no wind
