The days in February and March at Camp Redcloud are cool but often sunny, and the nights are cold.  There will definitely be snow.  It is very important that each student has appropriate clothing and foot wear. It is essential that participants have a dry set of clothes (including shoes) to change into after being in the snow.

Other Items if Coming in Spring (April-May):

Spring at Camp Redcloud means warm, sunny days and cold nights.  Since we are at an elevation of 9200 feet, our climate is cooler than that of lower elevations.  We recommend that you bring more clothes for cooler weather than for warmer weather.  Also, mud is HIGHLY likely at this time of year.  Please keep this in mind when selecting shoes and clothing.  Don't bring anything that you are not allowed to get dirty!
