Our first foray into winter camping. We pitched the tent on Dinkey Peak, then snowshoed up to Brockton Point (as far as my post-swine flu lungs would allow). The trip was a success - tons of snow on NYE (although unfortunately tons of rain on NYD), and we managed to stay toasty warm. We'll definitely be doing more of this, and venturing further afield.
