We encounter different conditions, trails and scenarios and our understanding of these differences are key to successful patrols and our safety. Topics : Trip planning, cold weather clothing, winter-specific gear, route finding, weather, modes of travel, what’s in the winter pack, safety issues, most common trails, how to avoid problems, handy tips and stuff that doesn’t work in the winter.
