One night outs Pack packing
Anybody else go the 24 hour hike, spend the night and eat maybe 2-3 meals..I'm not that prepared , but I do it anyway to get away from the everyday stuff.. I prefer cold winter trips in the snow, there is nothing like camping in the winter
Last time I used the half tarp open to the fire, lots of pine bows under me. It got way colder then it was planned, I just had to keep the long fire going all night. I went in the Fall/winter/ snow and the dang Temp dropped down to about 5 above.
Found out a few things.
I need a Bivy bag for the outside of my sleeping bag and an inside liner, that should help a bunch..
A good sharp saw to cut fire wood quicker. Other than those couple things I think the last winter trip went great.
One more thing, what do you use to cook with? I used an old mess kit and wish I had a deeper metal cup to heat water for coffee.
