Impromptu Winter Overnight in Rhode Island

[cmoulder]

Well the good news is Dirtbag and I did Pharaoh and camped overnight on top, which has been a minor bucket list item for a while. However our gear was not sufficient for multiple -15 to -20°F nights so we snowshoed out the next day. My Garmin Tempe registered an overnight low of -14.7°F, and the forecast was for even colder last night.

Neither of us has hammock kit for much below zero, so we both slept on the ground, Dirtbag in his MLD bivy and I in a Lightheart gear solo tent.

Didn't do a lot of photos, although I never miss a good sunrise... -12°F when this pic was made!

What a beautiful way to wake up. I love a good sunrise!

That's a stellar shot and I'm impressed you slept in that bivy bag in those temps. Frosty!

Great video and nice tarp. My friend is looking for a good one for his MI trip next week. We'll finish installing the suspension and leveling kits on his Wrangler tomorrow and he's gonna grab the rest of his gears the next day.

Thanks, I'm very happy with that Winterdream 12. Big upgrade and provides a lot more protection!
