WINTER CAMPING IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS
Camping during the winter months
is strictly for avid campers who wisely prepare for the harsh elements
of nature. However, climate is everything during this unpredictable
stretch of Mother Nature. For example, campers residing in the warmer
southern states may even find a need for air conditioning in their
tent - even in the month of January!
Just
a few sights to look for while camping during those cold days of
winter include:
In deer country you may see
a deer shed its antlers; in bear country, bear cubs are being born
and owls and ducks take up nesting. Jack Frost also likes
to pop in most mornings for a quick visit. Snowflakes may fall,
and ponds may freeze.
The days short while nights
are long, symbolic of nature at rest, in waiting for the warmer
months of spring that lie ahead in the not-to-distant-future.
