I'm not a winter camper , although I'd like to try it. But i'm itching to get back out there when it warms up a little

Winter is one of the best times for camping, nothing feels better than getting into a very-appropriate-for-the-cold rated sleeping bag after finding your way out into some real nature.

winter camping is amazing but definitely start with a 1-nighter close to home! the key is layering - good base layers and a sleeping bag rated at least 10° below what you expect. hot water bottle in the sleeping bag is a gamechanger too.
