Winter Hammock Camping (Does Not Mean Being Miserable!)
I’ve always been a fan of winter camping. I think it’s my way of channeling my inner Minnesotan. The first reaction I normally get from folks (not all of course) in response to winter camping is usually a look of “shock” and “why on earth would you do that?” Here is why, there’s something peaceful…

It really felt like someone just flipped the switch from excessive heat to comfortable crispiness. Three weekends in a row I was able to get out and chase the change. Weekend one was essentially…

From the Archives: Montana Winter 2/24-2/26/2017
When it comes to physically active and outdoor-minded folk, we all enjoy certain things in life. Some of us enjoy a relaxing day fishing, running a marathon, bagging that moose or deer to fill the freezer, or even just preferring outdoor labor as opposed to an office job. Some of us enjoy the warmth of…
