heated camping gear

Christine Giordano

If you’re looking for a getaway that’s not a plane trip away, consider a camping trip. Camping lets you disconnect from the daily hustle and bustle by encouraging you to interact with nature, and all of its scenic beauty (think about all the photos), and if fam or close friends are tagging along, it’s a prime opportunity for some serious bonding.

But don’t let cold weather deter you from heading out. Just make sure you’re prepped for it with some heated camping gear. Throwing on some heated clothing, like this battery operated-scarf, or wrapping yourself in a heated blanket will make you forget all about the colder temps.

Plus, once you dig your teeth into a toasty s’more, you’ll be tempted to kiss your own feet for planning your trip. To make your cold-weather camping trip that much more enjoyable, here are some top-rated heated camping gear items

Tennessee State Parks Camping Sees Record Occupancy in October, New November High

In October, the parks saw 62,124 nights of camping. That number is a record high for camping stays. The previous record of 57,472 nights was set in June 2020. November saw more than 36,000 camping nights sold. The previous record for November was 15,000 in 2019.

“The impact of COVID-19 simply underscores a growing awareness that the outdoors are a sanctuary for mental and physical health,” Jim Bryson, deputy commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, said. “The appeal of louder, busier, and crowded entertainment venues has given way to the space, freedom and connection the outdoors provide.”

The pandemic has increased outdoor recreation leading to record numbers.

It’s hard to beat camping in the fall. Temperatures in the mornings and evenings drop, luring you to longer, cozier sleep, while the days remain warm for comfortable outings. Destinations that were too hot to visit in the summer, like the desert, or too crowded, begin to feel welcoming again. And mountainous landscapes begin to emit that particular kind of magic only autumn can bring.

Spring and summer of this pandemic-defined year saw a boom in everything outdoors—from bikes to camping gear, anything to get people outside and adventuring—flying off the shelves. Don’t let the cooler temps and darker days keep you from recreating outdoors; here’s the fall car camping gear to keep everyone in the family healthy and happy, kids included.

Investors in Camping World Holdings Inc (Symbol: CWH) saw new options begin trading today, for the January 2021 expiration. At Stock Options Channel, our YieldBoost formula has looked up and down the CWH options chain for the new January 2021 contracts and identified one put and one call contract of particular interest.

The put contract at the $30.00 strike price has a current bid of $2.70. If an investor was to sell-to-open that put contract, they are committing to purchase the stock at $30.00, but will also collect the premium, putting the cost basis of the shares at $27.30 (before broker commissions). To an investor already interested in purchasing shares of CWH, that could represent an attractive alternative to paying $30.45/share today.

Because the $30.00 strike represents an approximate 1% discount to the current trading price of the stock (in other words it is out-of-the-money by that percentage), there

LANSING, MICH. — Seasoned campers know the drill: When early December rolls around, it’s time to start thinking about summer.

Campsite reservations at Michigan state parks and recreation areas can be made up to six months in advance — meaning now is the time to secure a camping spot for Memorial Day weekend 2021.

Officials from the Department of Natural Resources expect that the 2021 camping season may be on par with this year’s record-setting visitor numbers, so their message to campers is to plan ahead.

“Given how extremely busy we were this year, despite the pandemic, I would definitely recommend that people make reservations ahead of time,” said Jeremy Spell, central reservations system analyst for the DNR’s Parks and Recreation Division.

Michigan has more than 100 state parks, but campgrounds at the most popular parks tend to fill up quickly for summer holidays like Memorial Day and Independence Day.
