* There is no 2 or 3 minutes wait time for it to get 'bad'. When you go from dry to complete immersion, your muscles cramp up almost immediately.
* Rolling in snow after (while it may work) is a stupid idea. I'm sure you've had your fingers stick to ice cubes or frozen peas reaching into your freezer, why would you risk ice crystals sticking to other more tender areas?
* Nude is NOT the way to go. Tight clothes are best. Your skin will warm the layer of water between you and the clothing. Same principle as a wetsuit.
