Nice image Jim!  A bit eerie in your case because the tree branches mimic 
thousands of frozen fingers.
 
Never had a true case of frostbite but got close a couple times - painful!  And 
weird since ye olde fingers cease to cooperate with the brain.  Glad to hear 
you found a solution for your 'seasonal' problem.
 
Cheers!/Scott Gardner

Haven't tried them but for cold weather and to avoid getting frostbite 
again, I use a pair of electric gloves which have a single D cell on the 
outside wrist of each glove.

I got frostbite shooting this 11x14 almost two years ago.

The frostbite has "gone away" each summer but returns in the fall... so 
it's worth the little bit of battery weight to avoid more of it.

They also have other types of heated gloves and mittens as well.
