One of the coldest nights in my life was when my brother-in-law got us lost in Laguna Hansen one very cold December night. I don't know how cold it
got, but several glasses of water left outside the truck were frozen solid in the morning.DanO - 10-29-2009 at 01:23 PM
My wife and I spent a similar night at the end of October in the San Pedro Martir, camped in the meadows below the observatory. Our water jug was
frozen in the morning -- had to thaw it in the truck of the cab with the engine and heater running so we could make coffee. Whatever those sleeping
bags were rated, it wasn't enough.mtgoat666 - 10-29-2009 at 03:09 PM
Camped up there a number times in winter, often with snow. Lots of fire wood abouts, so easy to make a big ole bonfire and keep toasty.
Winter and off season is good time to be there, days are sunny and often quite comfortable for hiking, nights are cold, and you got privacy because
fewer visitors.Geothermal-Shane - 10-29-2009 at 04:12 PM
D.K.: info is from the UNAM website, but I wouldn't mind to be there right nowBajahowodd - 10-29-2009 at 04:18 PM
