New Addition for Winter Camp This Year


So for the past almost 19 years since we have been winter camping we have either slept under the stars or just put up a tent when weather was bad. But this year we are building a nice little shack. This is a pic of it with a couple of the walls put together. It will be lined with roofing paper and everything to ensure no water gets in. We will fill it with about a foot deep of straw for insulation. Monday or Tuesday if the weather holds we are going to take it up in pieces and assemble it up at the camp site so its ready to roll. During the winter it will be under up to 15 feet or more of snow, so we will need to dig steps down into the entry. It's going to be totally out of the wind and the elements. Should be pretty sick!!! I will get some pics after we put it up and then post more when winter hits.
