I'm a PhD student in atmospheric remote sensing in Kiruna, Sápmi (Lapland), Sweden. I first came to Stack Exchange for practical reasons: Tex.SE has been of major help when I wrote my licentiate (midterm) thesis. Since then, I have discovered the joy of many websites. As my network profile will show, I'm interested in travel, outdoor, scientific skepticism, and as I work in academia, also in academia and LaTeX.

Is it dangerous to sleep in a tent alone in a forest in -20? @Mia I guess so, but I would check with authorities to be sure. That'd be quite a lot of work for a more permanent camp as with my lavvu-suggestion, though. |

Is it dangerous to sleep in a tent alone in a forest in -20? Are you planning to live on a campsite, or in the wild? The Swedish allemansrätten means you can camp anywhere, but you cannot stay indefinately. I think you need to ask permission to stay more than 48 hours, and I doubt the town will give permission for your use case. But if you're on a campsite, it's of course permitted. Then you could also wash your clothes there. And, -20°C is nothing indeed! My colleague tried this (just for fun) for maybe three nights here in Kiruna with temperatures down to -40°C. Oh, and he decided not to bring his tent to his present work in Antarctica. |

Moose: How to decrease the risk of being injured? Don't enter a car ;) (I'm sure the vast majority of moose-caused injury is to people in cars) |

What can I do to keep my hands warm while using touchscreens in the winter? Doesn't the screen itself die when it's cold? The screen the odometer on my bicycle becomes blank when it's very cold outside. |
