Daytime temperatures around freezing - night time temperatures around minus 10 degrees ... you would have to be mad to choose to go camping in these conditions.   Well we are mad!

There was snow on the ground and floating down from the sky.   The only heat came from the camp fire.   We cooked on this fire ... we had too: it was so cold the gas cooker wouldn't have worked anyway!

We were camping at Gradbach Scout Camp Site in the Peak District.   During the day we went on an icy hike with some amazing views.
