Winter Camping

Camping in winter can be pretty challenging. You don’t realize how much you rely on the amenities of modern life until you try to put them behind you. Even setting up a campsite in summer is difficult sometimes. Getting clean water, finding places to go to the bathroom, preparing food, and even sleeping comfortably can be almost insurmountable challenges in good weather. With winter camping, you add a great many other difficulties to this already considerable list. Making your food, setting up your campground, and keeping your equipment warm and dry is much more difficult when there’s snow on the ground and the temperature is plummeting below zero! Yet with the right winter outdoor gear and the right experience, winter camps can be one of the most exciting and fun activities imaginable.
