CAMP FIRST ICE S’MORE - GOVERNOR DODGE STATE PARK, WI, JANUARY 14-15

WHAT, WHEN AND WHERE?

Join us for a quick overnight camping trip in Wisconsin’s Winter Wonderland on January 14-15, at Governor Dodge State Park. This State Park traditionally plows a few of its campsites for the Winter, and that’s where we will camp. Yes, in January. Are we crazy? No (ok, maybe).

Camping in the winter is not impossible, but it comes with its risks. You have to have the right sleeping bag, the right sleeping pad, and a lot of base layers. Depending on the temperature, it may be very pleasant, or it may be a no go. We will watch the weather and see how it is. But if you come, come prepared! We will share well in advance a wealth of material for you to read on. But this is a nice article to start with.

If you are interested but don’t have enough winter camping gear, send us a message - you can borrow some of our gear.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST AND HOW DO I PAY?

The cost of this event will depend on how many we are, but it will be between $5 and $15 per person. Go ahead and add this event to the cart and complete the check out - we have set the cost at zero. Once we have an idea of how many are interested we will be in touch directly.

WHAT’S THE PLAN?

We will drive to Governor Dodge’s State Park on Saturday morning, build our tents, build a beautiful fire, and spend the day outdoors enjoying the Winter Wonderland. We will cook great warm food and tell each other how silly we are or how great we are, it will all depend - and bring your snowshoes for a trek to Stephens Falls, where we will watch ice climbers climbing the frozen cascade.
