Not if you were wearing what I said I have with me.
You'd have snow gear, thermals, waterproofs, obviously hats, gloves, scarf, and all that. Then add to that a sleeping bag that you've cut arm and leg holes in. You'd toast up pretty quickly, especially with the effort required to make the journey of 1 mile. I genuinely believe you'd overheat in the journey, more than you'd freeze, as long as you kept moving. When I'm on the slopes, I usually just wear thermal top, hat, waterproof jacket, and snow pants (also waterproof) and I'm roasting!!! So having a boarding jacket, thermal long-johns, and a 3 season sleeping bag as well.....you'll toast like a pop-tart (in about a minute).
Unless your fitness was dire, or the injury was that bad, I think most people would be able to make that journey with that gear.
