In November, it has begun to snow in many places, and it is a different feeling to camp in the ice and snow in winter. As a professional mountain outdoor practitioner of Guizhou Ledong Shanshui Sports Tourism Company, having seen a lot of bad ice and snow weather, it is necessary to remind everyone that the warmth work must be taken seriously when camping in winter, and write down relevant suggestions for your reference:
Camping in winter
A three-piece set of winter camping equipment
The camping trio is a tent, a sleeping bag, and a moisture pad, which play a decisive role in resisting the cold, and the following is a detailed description of the three-piece set:
1. Winter camping suit of three-piece - tent
The key role of the tent is windproof, rainproof, snowproof, and also the three elements of preventing low temperatures, wet; cold; wind, two of which are the key equipment of the Japanese wind! The key to staying warm in winter camping at extremely low temperatures is to prevent the wind, and the rain will turn into snow, or sleet. The key to wind protection lies in the structure of the tent! So tents with a skeletal structure of tent poles are definitely more windproof than tower tents.
Snow skirt and four seasons of the account is the key configuration of windproof and warm, if your tent does not have a snow skirt, only three seasons of the account can be used to fill the space at the bottom of the inner and outer tents with snow to insulate the wind, in addition to the life blanket wrapped sleeping bag, plus a layer of no four seasons of the internal account of the wind.
In addition to the exterior of the tent rainproof, it is also necessary to pay attention to preventing the internal dew from wetting the sleeping bag. Also pay attention to the tent not to seal too tightly, keep the inside of the tent ventilated, will reduce the internal dew, small windows according to the situation a small part of the open.

2, winter camping suit three-piece set - sleeping bag
Outdoor camping sleeping bag We choose a down water-repellent sleeping bag, non-down sleeping bag can not participate in winter outdoor camping activities. A few empirical values for your reference:
First of all, the amount of pile, in the case of conditions permitting, of course, the heavier the pile, the better! Below minus 20 we recommend filling no less than 1300 grams. When paying a single bill, the double bill cannot be less than 1000 grams.
Secondly, personal experience feels that taking off the outer clothing to keep warm clothes is warmer and more comfortable than wearing outer clothes to drill sleeping bags. Take off warm clothes and other clothing do not need to be packed, all stuffed into the sleeping bag, propped up the sleeping bag wrapped around your body, where it feels cold, you can pull the clothes at any time.
The last thing to do is to feel warm in your sleeping bag, boil more water and pack a few more hot water bottles! No hot water bottle can be replaced by thicker beverage bottles such as pulse, and the cap must be tightened in the bottle of boiled water, if the leakage consequences are very serious. When you strip naked and sleep, wrap the bottle with socks or a fleece jacket to avoid burns.
3. Winter camping suit three-piece set - moisture-proof mat
The role of moisture-proof mats is no longer emphasized, and friends in the outdoor industry know that "it is better to cover three layers on the body than to lay one layer under the body". It is an essential piece of equipment for outdoor camping in winter. Equipment selection mainly depends on the heat value of the moisture-proof mat, the higher the heat value of the mat, the better the warm performance, the inflatable mat is very dangerous to use in winter, it is not recommended to use, it is easier to make the inflatable mat material denatured and leaked when it is cold, and the old donkeys will generally choose the inflatable mat + non-inflatable mat double mat mode.
The correct use of the camping three-piece set can basically solve the warm work of camping at low temperatures.
2. Winter camping warmth and warming method
1. Cook in the tent, burn the fire, boil the water, and light the gas lamp. It will heat up the tent quickly and make yourself feel more comfortable. But burned the tent, flashed, wet equipment with water, burned, lack of oxygen. It's all very serious accidents! Beginners are strictly forbidden to perform the above operations in the tent!
2, two people in a tent is much warmer than one person. With a fleece liner, the body will feel more comfortable. When it is really cold, the sleeping bag can be two stitched together, whether it is an envelope or a mummy sleeping bag hugging each other to warm up can save the absence of temperature. Pulsating bottled hot water made of warm treasure is the best way to heat, one is not enough to have more, so camping should be more with pulsation!

3. Precautions for low temperature camping in winter
1, water bladder, kettle to fill the water things before going to bed must be poured out of the water, otherwise it is difficult to take out the ice.
2, wet shoes are best to dry, do not put outside, otherwise the morning freeze hard is not worn.
The above is part of the experience of personal winter camping for your reference, other solutions have more professional equipment and tools to solve, before camping can consult more professional companies or outdoor people, be fully prepared before starting. I hope to meet you on the way outdoors, and I wish every winter camping fellows a happy, safe and healthy!
