bistro Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 I'm planing on taking a new grl friend camping next week. I don't know her to well, do I need to take protection? I have 30mtr. of good limbing rope and have access to some planks just in case. I'm thinking a Hard Shell might come in handy but haven't decided if I should go with a pre-cip or go full on Storm Shell. I'm pretty sure we'll find a current bush and get plugged in so I think I'm gonna be warm for at least a couple of minutes though I'm not sure whats gonna keep the fire going. Any advise is welcumed. Thanks, for all the fish..... Quote
dave schultz Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Haha ... maybe a sleeping bag for two? http://www.backcountry.com/big-agnes-king-solomon-sleeping-bag-15-degree-down - maybe a little two warm, but you can always leave it unzipped. Protection is for people who ask questions ... just don't ask the question Quote
AlpineK Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Without walking down an obvious path I'd recommend a couple day trips first Maybe you already have. Making observations on the effects of cold weather on her could help you plan or prepare for an overnight trip. There are down quilts you could bring as a backup for an existing sleeping bag. Making sure your overnight destination isn't too far from the trailhead-car can help too. Quote
