Weather for March 2010

The forecast for the March Event at Sac is looking about as good as it can get so far - clear and sunny all three days of the event.

Regardless of the sky's conditions, the more important thing to be prepared for - the ground.

The campsite will be one massive, messy, mud pit.

I cannot emphasize this enough.  With the large amount of precipitation, followed by the ground thawing and re-freezing, turns the camp into hell on your garb, especially your footwear.  I've seen people lose tightly laced Son of Sandlar boots in this mud.

In order to ensure you don't get banned from your own household on going home, it is advised you bring at least two spare sets of footgear, and keep them wrapped in plastic bags.  Also, bring lots and lots of warm, dry socks.

If anyone has gaiters, either full or half, I suggest bringing them. I'll certainly be wearing mine.

Here is a link for those who want to buy some for next month. They can not be over-hyped!
