    Winter Camping Forum

    I hope I'm not breaking any HF rule, but I thought I'd provide a link...

    I was researching pulk sleds and came across Winter Campers, and thought we shared some common interests. My cursory review of the site indicates that hammocks need to be introduced. I sense an opportunity for HF to enjoy a growth spurt...A job for Shug the Missionary from Sector Seven?

    Just a thought... HF is here to share info and inform, not to 'convert'.

    I'm certain that site has a lot of great info. Hammocks may not be 'needed' there though.

    Nice site. They already know about us, have links to all of Shug's winter videos, but they (after a cursory viewing) seem a very good resource for those of us who love to winter camp. I have bookmarked it for future reference.

    Have started to pray for snow,,,,, for next week,,,, In SW Ohio.

    As the average temp here has been in the low 90, I'm thinking any snow won't stick, but I can wish can't I.

    Great - thanks for introducing me to something else to take up my time! I'll be reading up at some point.

    Not sure we need to enjoy more of a growth spurt until we can stop moderating so much of our current growth spurt!

    My sentiment as well. Phrasing was only an attempt to be facetious.

    Check with BEEP. I believe that he has written a very good winter outfitting article for them.
