5/30/2017 0 Comments Graupel and Glamping![]() Memorial Day Weekend, we drove to the mountains to do some camping and fishing. As often happens when we camp with our elder daughter's family, it rained. Then it snowed, or rather graupeled. Graupel is a variety of snow that is somewhere between flakes and hail. The graupel didn't last long, and the next day was beautiful. My husband's father hoped to do some fishing, but the day he was with us was the graupel day. Still, he was happy to be in the mountains. We introduced my sister to our version of glamping. Although glamping can be quite luxurious, in our world, it means you aren't sleeping on the ground. We have cots, rated sleeping bags, and even propane heaters if it comes to that. We set up a canopy for shade and shelter from the rain. Our daughter's family has an RV, so during the storm, they watched movies in heated comfort. We didn't catch any fish, but we did go on a vertical hike. We were over 10,000 feet on a beautiful mountain. More photos below in a slide show.
