Camping Gems - Illinois Tips

 
Weather
The Midwest is famously warm and humid in the summer and snowy in the winter.  Illinois is no exception.  From its average warm-season highs in the upper eighties to the winter average lows of 10 degrees, this is a place where seasons matter.  For the most perfect weather, visit Illinois during the spring and fall.  In the summer, try to camp near a lake or swimming pool, and in the winter always travel with chains and ice scrapers.
