I have done this once or twice.

The Ice Queen: Sveta Vold and the Night Water Butterflies Are the 'Chillest Humans'

When Sveta Vold first moved to America in 2011, no one here thought swimming in a frozen lake was a sane idea. But it was her normal.

I jumped into a glacier fed lake on a hot summer day once. Just once. Body went into shock and I couldn't breath until I got out of the water.

I tend to run more in the winter. Does that count?

I was expecting hookers and blow, but that's cool, too.

Does hibernating count as an other cold weather activity ? Cuz I think I'd kick ass at it !

Been there. Rope swing into a snow runoff river, couldn’t breathe and basically doggy paddled to shore. I always test the water first now…

I led a cold water swim on January in Lake Del Valle here in Livermore. Full triathlon Wetsuits an neoprene hoods but no booties or gloves. water temp was in the low 40s, we swam for 3 miles. We had to carry some folks from the water as their feet were so numb that they cold not stand.. Post swim everyone was in polar fleece 300 pants down booties and an down jackets drinking hot chocolate with their car heaters on full blast. I had a ball

I had tested the sun warmed 2" deep shallows, then dove into a sheer drop off where the water was just a few degrees above freezing.

Cold weather grilling. Boston Butt tonight. Put garlic plugs and Thyme. Coated in mustard. Going to pull it off the grill wrap it in butcher paper and finish it tomorrow.

That sounds like a cold weather activity alright.

I like grilling in the cold weather. The Weber throws off a fuckton of heat. And is more manageable in the colder weather.
