Happy Fall, dear readers!

As the nights get cold and frost greets us in the morning, the Sherpas are as busy as ever here at Base Camp. As you travel about in the cold weather, make sure you follow a couple of tips to keep your equipment functioning correctly.

  1. Don’t leave electronics in the car! The cold can affect the circuitry and even cause condensation INSIDE your screen. A good rule of thumb is to keep your gear near your body heat.
  2. If you do leave your gear in your car (it happens), let it come to room temperature before you plug in or operate. This will reduce the chance of frying any circuitry.
  3. Bring a spare battery! Extreme cold can sap your battery much faster than regular warm weather – make sure you have a small unit charged up and ready to roll.

Now that you’re ready for snowy weather, check out some of the cool things we’ve been up to this fall.
