Corrected entry: When the 3 of them are caught in the middle of an ice storm while searching for the Russian ship, they wind up laying low for a while in the cold until the storm passes. Now if it's going to take 6 hours for the storm to pass and an ice storm that takes place at well below 0 degrees, how could they escape the storm with just frost on their hair and face? Even if it was above 0 degrees, the high winds would have given them full body frost bite or hypothermia.

Correction: Given the surface temperature on mars, their space suits are most likely electrically heated.
