Title. I'm moving into late fall for the Valley weather, and looking down the barrel of winter. What is your coping strategy?

Sewing a 50L bag and 7-9L lid and taking it out this winter. Lots of of projects to follow

Oh that's cool. Do you have a pattern? What materials are you using?

[–] TK420@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

TH50 from Stitchback. EPX200 for most of it with venom mesh for the pockets

Layers?

Bahaha. That's one thought. I do plan on going cross country skiing quite a bit, but unfortunately only day trips.

I know it's not really camping but you could look into renting a cabin for a night. You can pack more/heavier clothes if you're not packing a tent

Yurting! I have always wanted to do it but forget to book them in time, they are popular. Thanks for the reminder!
