FAQ
Do I need a permit to camp in a national forest?
Often no for dispersed camping, but the local ranger district sets the rule. Check before you drive in.
What is a 3-season tent?
A tent built for spring through fall. Fine in rain and wind. Not a winter fortress.
How should I layer for a cold morning?
Wicking base, fleece, wind shell. Add a beanie before you add another jacket.
