WoW free camping up that way at this time of year, you sure as hell are more adventures in that regard than me. When we were travelling in that area it was end of summer ,and really starting to get toooo cold at night for my liking, and we have a gas heater in van, I am not a person who can be cooped up inside a c/ van with heater on ,i like this life to be out side fishing/ driving/ kyaking/ any thing other than sitting around trying to keep warm.But i guess some people thrive on the cold.
