You must be a youngling. The rest of us gave up camping during the winter in Colorado decades ago. Did it in a tent a couple of times 40+ years ago. Long johns, wool socks, sock hat, down sleeping bag, warm wife, etc. Now it's Arizona, king size bed, heat, a couple of cats, warm wife, etc.

I am with you! I have been in Colorado for 50 years and my wife is a native. The last time I camped in the Colorado mountains in winter was for a Boy Scout Klondike Derby with my sons. That was 30 years ago and I still shiver just thinking about it. Give me southern Arizona or New Mexico any winter over Colorado.
