WHITEWATER REGION (Beachburg) — Heliconia is proud to announce the release of a new series called “Winter Tips”. Hosted by Eric Hanson, expert backpacker and star of the popular Epic Trails TV show, the series provide viewers with best practices on how to successfully, and enjoyably, go winter camping. The videos, nine in total, can be viewed on the Backpacking TV YouTube channel.
The Winter Tips series was officially launched with the release of an inspirational video fittingly called “Winter Camping Can Suck – Or it Can Be Epic.” Filmed over two days in -20 Celsius temperatures in the beautiful Ottawa Valley, this piece combines breathtaking cinematography with easily accessible expert advice. Throughout, Mr. Hanson explains his desire to inspire others to give winter camping a try.
“Most people don’t want to experience the discomfort [of winter camping],” empathized Mr. Hanson. “But what they’re doing is ruling out that they’re going to experience the other extreme, which is the joy and the elation and the peace and the beauty that comes with it.”
