What to pack

What March feels like

March suits anyone comfortable on skis or a fat bike: the snowpack is set, the days are long, and the first fifteen miles of the park road are yours alone. Nothing out here is staffed, so bring everything you need and be honest with yourself about winter camping.

Winter is doing its thing: 8.2 in of snow in a typical March, with fresh snow on about 6 days. Nearly every night dips below freezing.
