http://74.125.113.104/search?q=cache:AxE9oFHLGKMJ:https://www.mainemilitary.com/productcart/pc/viewPrd.asp%3Fidcategory%3D0%26idproduct%3D2125+cold+weather+pen&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=ca

We use pencils or marker pens up here in 'igloo country'. BTW the summers can be downright hot and muggy here in SW Ontario.

Interesting that the link describes this pen as working from -30F to 250F. Maybe useful when making notes during nuclear flash - hope the paper is rated too.

Try just keeping your pen in your shirt breast pocket.
