I do a lot of lift-served skiing in VT/NH (10-20 days per yr) as well as backcountry hiking and snowshoeing in the Berkshires/Catskills...Jan and Feb this is in 0-15 degree daytime temps. This glove seems great, but the reviews seem to suggest it isn't the warmest...what is the recommended "system" for optimizing this glove in zero-degree weather?

These gloves are warm but I bought them a little large and wear thicker liners under them. As Angus posted, the thicker or extra liners make a huge difference and turn these into very warm gloves.

Liner gloves. Most will be too thick, but Icebreaker makes some REALLY thin gloves that'll fit in anything your bare hand fits in and give you that little extra layer of wool for insulation. Makes a big difference.
