This weekend is going to be a fun one! My friends and I are heading into the mountains in east San Diego. I’ve never been to Cuyamaca Rancho State Park but I’ve heard its beautiful- especially when trying to catch a meteor shower like tonight! However, the only draw back is when I was watching my FOX 5 News this morning and Chrissy Russo told me the mountain areas were going to be cold with a slight chance of rain. I’m no stranger to cold weather camping but my number one rule to surviving AND having fun is being prepared! Usually we backpack in so I can’t take certain items like firewood and a camping stove but this has camping spots and picnic tables so for me, this weekend is a treat! Take a look at my list when packing for cold weather (along wihth a few other neccessities).
Packing for Cold Weather
-Firewood
-Scarf
-Hand Warmers
-Lantern

-Jeans (1 pair)

-Blanket (use it for sitting around campfire and over sleeping bag)
-Notebook for writing

Enjoy your camping. I’ve arranged for a camping trip to Kosciuszko National Park (here in Australia) for the 30th November. Just a tent and whatever else fits in. Should be around 30 deg… Will post pics on Google+

Sounds fun!! It was cold this weekend but not 30 degrees cold! I think I got better at packing because even though it was windy and chilly, I was still comfortable 🙂

We shoot cans- no animals or each other… just cans 🙂
