Roadside Camping

This designated campsite is pretty darn close to the road, but still pretty nice. This year with the snow and cold, I don't expect Stony Creek Road to be open until May or later.

Winter Camping in Late November 2014

|

After the Thanksgiving in 2014, I went up to the Adirondacks for some winter camping. It was kind of fun, not too cold wearing proper gear. That said, it helped being properly dressed for the snow -- and it made me get better insulated boots after this trip.
