Dragonspine Mountain is unusually cold even at lower elevations, so be careful to watch for early signs of frostbite! If your extremities are turning colors and painful or tingling when touched, it's past time to end your exploration and get warmed up. Be sure not to rub the affected areas, as friction can cause more damage; the best remedy is to immerse them in warm water until the symptoms ease, and get checked by a doctor or healer if the skin doesn't go back to normal quickly.

Also, please take care to remember that snow reflects sunlight, and thus sunburn is a real danger despite the low temperature - not to mention snow blindness from the glare. If you're going out to Dragonspine, bring eye protection and wear sunscreen, for your own safety. Wind can also make matters worse by drying out your skin - the best answer is to cover up as much as you can.

Bubu Pharmacy of course stocks handwarmers, sunscreen, and protective salves, so stop by before you head up the mountain! And I also provide healing services, if your precautions turn out to be insufficient.
