So Doug....

I did a cold water night paddle Monday night.  No wind, no waves, just
flat water, a 2 mile paddle, and 5 good friends.  Oh, and a big pot of
spaghetti on a little island...

But...I know my Petzl Zoom headlamp isn't waterproof.  Works well, but
not waterproof.  Do you have any ideas for waterproof headlamps that
work as well?

And for winter night storm paddling, how do you keep your headlamp? 
Epoxied to your helmet?  Staples? ;)  Chin strap?

Thanks in advance
Shawn
