Hmm, looks like I had better restore my street cred and share this pic of The Big Lebowski on a winter camp a couple of years ago. Temps hit -9C and it snowed. Was a great camp. No wind though

Street cred restored Sir.

Hope you have a good camp tonight and stay toast & safe. We'll be needing pictures & a report mind.

Any more trees down?

Not in my Big Woods - though there is a lot of small branch and twig fall... The land owner is going to drop the trees around our camp are that are causing concern - one is only standing due to the fact it is leaning on another one!
I am just going up to my Small Woods now....braving the hail/sleet/rain now the winds have dropped a bit...

I just got back from my stroll - only one small tree has come down since my last visit... a medium sized Sycamore - right across the entrance track....
While I was out it rained, hailed and sleeted .. the only white stuff sticking for more than a few minutes was the hail ... everything is sopping wet!
This morning I took apart the big table in my Big Woods so the bloke with the chainsaw can drop 2 trees that also form the table supports, this afternoon it was taking apart the table in my small woods that had been crushed by windfall timber...
Ah well - projects for the next visits....

I think we'll start calling you The Postman; neither hail, nor sleet, nor snow shall keep you from your task. Glad there's not been too much damage. Just think on it as nature providing easy future firewood.
I nipped up to touch snow earlier, didn't get right to the top but did have a pretty nice sandwich when I stopped. Tiger bread, roasted pepper humous, smoked ham & cranberry sauce. Almost got me in the festive spirit.
Hope the clear up goes well in your woods.
