He's used to it, sometimes you gotta take off your gloves to work. My great uncle used to repair snowmobiles up north near james bay. He never once owned a pair of gloves. and never got frost bite. My family is part native Cree so we are used to the weather.

It might not even be as cold as it looks like, when it's really cold the air is usually quite clear. It's possible that it's only around 0 Celcius when that picture was taken, and that's not actually cold at all; at least when you are moving around.

Handling weapon is also pretty hard/impossible with winter gloves on, and at least trigger finger should be always free when shooting.

oh dear, he is not there to shoot anything. The only people I know of that do that are those who work inside, signalists, radar monitors, trajectory calculators. I´ve seen plenty of those, they only come out when its too hot inside :) And offcorse the rifle is warm aswell. He is probably a artillery radar monitor, so he works inside.
Look, exaust and "steem" comming out of the truck.
