Question about hiking in bitter cold this weekend

Hi everyone - I'm planning on hiking whiteface and hopefully Esther on Saturday with a few friends. We've hiked a handful of high peaks in the winter but I'm a little concerned about the forecast. Saturday the high temp is supposed to be 15 degrees and the Sunday the high is -5!



I'm posting to see if some of you more seasoned hikers have any suggestions or recommendations about hiking in these low temps.



We will not be camping - just day hiking. We have all the standard equipment. I'm just curious to know if any of you have any tips , thoughts about any supplies or gear that a more novice winter hiker might be overlooking, or if anyone thinks that we should avoid hiking in subzero temps.



Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
