3. Dead Leaves Can Keep You Warm

8

Everyone has a theory about how to stay warm, but some of them will give you the completely opposite result (we’re looking at you, incorrect proponents of drinking alcohol while out in the cold). Something that will work, though, is to pick up as many dead leaves as you can handle and stuff them inside your clothes.
