Winter Camping Sites Mississippi

Camping vacation out of freezing temperatures and snow-storms characteristic for northern states is a tempting idea and frankly, well rewarded by Mississippi's Mother Nature.....

Located at the south of United States, Mississippi was heavily forested but in the 19th century most of the state was cleared for cotton cultivation.

Now Mississippi is entirely composed of lowlands.

Fortunately most of its great rivers and lakes were left intact.

The state has a humid subtropical climate. Flooding has been integral part of Mississippi’s history.

Mississippi has long summers and mild and short winters. Temperatures average about 81°F (about 27°C) in July and about 48 °F (about 9 °C) in January.

Every part of Mississippi is however susceptible to winter weather conditions that include ice and snow storms. Ice hockey is one of the winter attractions of the state, played in Biloxi. Birding in the Mississippi coast is another popular winter activity.
