Forecast is nowheres near that cold. The following link will give temperatures in celsius for Prince Albert which is near many of the outfitters.

To convert divide degrees c by 5, multiply by 9 and add 32.

If C is -25 then you get -13 f . Don't forget that degrees c are larger units and the negative temps start at the freezing point unlike degrees f which are still a positive 32.



This is for the low temp which will be near or shortly after dawn but daytime highs will warm up considerably. Layers.

Another rule-of-thumb/benchmarks to keep in mind.... 0 deg C = 32 deg F, -18 deg C = 0 deg F, and -40 deg C = -40 deg F. So below 0, I always approximate F by assuming that a drop of 1 deg C is close to 2 deg F, and calculate from those benchmarks.

Cheers,

It's +35 F in south sask today, however forecast to drop and wind next week. Not to -30 though. Layer your clothing using some wool. Sitting in a treestand doesn't generate much warmth. Saw a near 200 pt. whitetail in the back of a truck at US customs this morning. 2 guys from Colo. had a good hunt in the Norquay Sk. area. Second buck was prob. 165 ish. My gransons each got a decent mule deer buck last Sat. 2 miles from home. Mark
