I'd like to go camping next weekend but the weather in New Hampshire looks to be in the mid-20's F. I have a pretty warm sleeping bag. What other measures should I take to enjoy the camping, rather than freezing my butt off and not having a good time?


Answer
man, you got some very primeval answers---build a lean-to?? lay nespapers and sticks under your tent??

...i just camped up there columbus day weekend...if you're worried about being warm, go to Dick's Sporting Good's (or any sporting goods store)...and get a fleece liner for your bag for $10...the feeling of fleece wrapped around you will keep you toasty all night...seriously when you're tucked in it wont be bad, if anything you might get chilly when you're hanging around at night--for that just wear a jacket and keep the fire going---you'll be fine and have fun---its goiing to snow over the presidential range tonight--calling for a few inches at the highest elevation!! that reminds me, you might want mitts too

Where is an amazing place to go camping with a tent in the white mountain area? Please help me out, ive never been up north before. Thanks!


Answer
Where to begin! There are tons of great camping in The Whites. If you are looking for more campground-style tenting then look at Lafayette Place Campground in Franconia Notch State Park. Greta are for hiking, camping and anything else outdoors.

If you're looking for something more wilderness/backcountry try 13 Falls Tentsite or Liberty Springs Campsite. Both are wilderness camping which requires a bit of a hike to it but its worth it.

Check out this link for all White Mountain Tentsites.
