I live in Edmonton, Canada and during the winter months the temp can sit around -30 C so around -22 F for days and on the real nasty days the wind chill can climb it up to -40 C and up (also around -40 F), so will these gloves be able to stand up to the cold when doing simple tasks such as shoveling a few times a day, walking the doggies, and waiting at the bus stop because it 15 minutes behind schedule. If not What would you suggest, and one more thing, how well do they hold up on a good days worth of skiing?

Hey. I would consider one of two glove from Mountain Hardwear over the Spearhead Mitt due to their superior warmth. The first would be the Absolute Zero Mitt (if you need more weather protection). The second would be the Masherbrum Mitt for its warmth alone. The Absolute Zero Mitt was designed to be super versatile where the Masherbrum Mitt was designed with high altitude climbing in mind and is literally double stuffed. So, depending on your needs... there are a couple of choices for you. Hope this helps!
