Fat fall beaver sure skin quick and clean when you let them stiffen up for a couple days before skinning.
Just like pushing butter off a spoon.

Water freezes at 0 and boils at 100.
So minus 3 is 3 degrees below freezing best I can do for you.
Have no clue about the other scale.

How is the temperature there compared to average now. I was out in a T shirt today. It has been warmer then average here, but it shows the top end dropping starting Wednesday.

Nice & clean! I usually start clean skinning but switch to normal when I get closer to the back.
