Winter Camping
So I recently was fortunate enough to get invited on a backcountry excursion with Jeremy Jones and an extremely experienced two-feet powered snowboard crew. Loaded up with 70 pound packs filled with essential winter camping gear, dehydrated food and our shred sticks, we set off to a location on the southern edge of Lake Tahoe. The snow wasn't epic, but at least it wasn't sliding like the rest of North America. The camping was fun and interesting. Being a beginner winter camper I learned a lot and am looking forward to the next excursion. Here's some pics. Ciao.
