I'm just starting to get more into cold weather camping. In Virginia, that tends to mean cold temperatures but not much in the way of the white stuff. I was out this past weekend and the ground was nice and frozen. I was using some Y stakes and wound up sacrificing some (about half) to the God of Lost and Broken Equipment. What's the secret to staking out when the ground is frozen, there is no snow to dig into, and you've exhausted all the "natural stakes" (sticks, rocks, roots, etc)? Bigger stakes? Smaller Stakes? Head back to the car and grab a beer and a steak?
