Funny how age changes needs and perspective. In my youth camping in winter (mainly packing in for hunting) consisted of drinking water from a spring or melting snow. Shelter? Yes, I took a tent instead of just the sleeping bag and the only freezing concern was my fingers and toes. Now, I want all the comforts of home and dislike it when I have to take the dog out in the cold (at home we open the door and let him run).
