Template:Ay prerequisite

2. Make up a complete list of necessary camping equipment for winter conditions, such as possible sub-zero (-18° C) temperatures, storms, and snow.

3.Explain the principles of maintaining body warmth and dryness through the proper use of clothing and sleeping gear under all temperatures down to zero while traveling, resting, and sleeping.

4. List and explain the characteristics of winter campsite selection.

5. Describe, or show where possible, the preparation of a level tent site in snow and pitch a tent in winter conditions.

6. Prepare a balanced three-day menu to be used in your winter camping experience.

7. Know how to get water from snow.

Though snow is a form of water, it is foolish to eat it while it is still frozen, especially when spending an extended period of time in the cold. Eating snow can lower the body temperature, leading to chills at best, hypothermia and death at worst. That said, snow is still a great source of drinking water, so long as it is melted first. Pack snow into a pot and put it on the camp stove.

8. Know five safety rules of winter camping.

9. Explain the proper steps to take if stranded without equipment in winter conditions.

10. Show knowledge of and ability to prevent, recognize, and care for mild frostbite, hypothermia, mild snow blindness, and dehydration.
