how would you like to do some winter
camping at a 90-year-old cabin in the
burkers starting January 11th at 9:00
a.m. sharp reservations are open for
Thursday through Saturday winter camping
at Mohawk Trail State
Forest there are six cabins you can book
three like this one were built in 1934
by the civilian conserv a Corp and the
other three were built in the far back
time of
1995 you can tell the difference between
the two because the CCC cabins have
angular cuts on the end the more flat
cut ones come from 95 but before you
book your stay come see what it's like
to Camp a little rustic in the winter
time

it's nice and cozy once that fire really
gets
going now the cabins don't have indoor
plumbing but they're all within sight of
this heated Comfort station that
features flushing toilets hot showers
and running water the newer cabins have
these great wood stove stoves that even
have enough room to cook on
top
[Music]
the CCC cabins have these great wood
stove inserts there's not enough room to
cook on but they look great with the old
chimney and they do have charcoal
camping stoves or sometimes it's a fire
ring with a grilling top on it a lot of
people also just put their little
propane camp stoves right on top we just
asked that you buy the wood from us here
at the park headquarters to cut down on
the chances of invasive insects entering
the park it's only $7 a bundle just be
sure to bring a hatchet to make your own
[Music]
kindling the roads and paths are all
plowed and cleared by staff but if a
storm rolls in while you're here be
prepared to dig yourself
out same goes for the power power
doesn't go out often here but when it
does go out it could be out for a couple
days so be
prepared also almost no one gets
reception up here so be prepared to
entertain yourself the oldfashioned way
I don't know how to play
this here we go
[Music]
there is a working pay phone at the park
headquarters in case you need to make a
call bring
quarters so all in all it's a lot like
regular camping there's no running water
so have a plan to clean your own dishes
don't use the sink in the comfort
station please
and just like tent camping carry in
carry out bring a trash bag to pack
everything up
with so check the link with this video
to book your reservation on Thursday and
see if you get one of the cabins that
I've left a fun game in
put the Rubik's Cube in the CCC
cabin ah forget it just going to leave
it here
