Synopsis

Elmer's friends are shivering in the cold, so he leads them up a snowy mountain to show what real cold feels like. As they climb higher, the temperature drops, and a fun snowball fight at the peak warms them up. The elephants realise their home isn't so chilly after all. Elmer's playful adventure teaches that hot and cold are all about perspective.
