Winter Skills Page

Winter is just around the corner and I'm changing some strategies to deal with upcoming adventures.

I added a new page over at my http://brawnyview/blogspot.com

blog, and entitled it Ultralight Backpacking Winter Skills.

This link should take you right there:

These techniques I've learned on the Appalachian Trail, Bartram Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, Colorado Trail, John Muir Trail, etc.

Although I've hiked mostly in three seasons, once you get about 8,000 feet, and especially above 10,000 feet, the mountains make their own weather. Be prepared.
