Here are a few tips on winter backpacking.

If you want to try winter backpacking, keep in mind that the gears are very important in winter for the safety. You will need a reliable 4 season tent. The snow on the ground can be blown into the tent if you use a 3 season tent as it is designed for good ventilation. I also recommend that you wear sturdy GoreTex hiking boots. Otherwise, the hiking boots will get wet after a few hours even if they claim to be waterproof. It can be dangerous if the hiking boot get wet. GoreTex performs way better than other materials in waterproofing. Bring 230g of fuel. 100g is not enough in the winter even for 1 night as melting snow consumes a lot of fuel. Keep your eyes on the weather forecast and avoid windy day.
