Brrr.

I was looking through some old photos. There was one time we were boondocking in a British Columbia Provincial Park in November of 2007. Temperature went down to -10C (14F).

Didn't have any problems except for a lack of battery power in the morning because they were so cold! No frozen lines or anything though.

What's the coldest you've ever camped?

    Nice. :)

    I slept in my camper at around -10f without the furnace. In the morning, I spilled an espresso and it froze as fast as it hit the floor.

    WOW! I bet you didn't have any trouble finding a camping/boondocking spot.
    I don't like leaving the house if it's below 32F.
