蒂姆：有， 我和我的朋友经常去徒步旅行E&ByaB=bQaBxdk;r@。我们也会参加露营，背包旅行，滑雪露营，雪地行走等各种运动ZLSkW_w*+xF;m(G2m。
Jeff: Really. You snow camp?
杰夫：真的吗？你们去过滑雪露营？
Tim: Yeah, we snow camped before, yeah.
蒂姆：对，我们以前有过滑雪露营的经历Ax%0baOtC,&U。
Jeff: So do you stay out or do you stay in a cabin or?
杰夫：那你们是呆在室外还是呆在小屋里？
Tim: No, usually we go out. A lot of times it's snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. We go out and we build a little hut basically by digging down and go underneath and stay there for the night and come out. It's really cold.
蒂姆：通常我们会出去j|bm0NE,%MJ_pO^c。我们经常去雪地行走和越野滑雪8TD1ovgcLf5-W|J02o。我们会在室外动手搭建一个临时小屋，然后在里面住一个晚上再出来hG%-,SB0--JPUVG_。真的非常冷_WX@)T)Lz,Hnu18。
Jeff: So, do you pull a sled behind you or do you carry your stuff?

蒂姆：基本上我们会背个背包&;e]@CsGvUk5d@]。
Jeff: I want to try that.
杰夫：我也想试试+LNHi!u%KkoOXrWr。
Tim: Yeah, it's a lot of fun, but it's cold and usually you don't enjoy a lot of it until you done, and when you're done you think, "Ah, that was a great experience."
蒂姆：嗯，有很多乐趣，不过非常冷，可是还是很享受，结束之后你会想：那真是一次很棒的经历ZP.*8nc,Ipg*Tfqt5。
Jeff: Yeah, yeah. I think it would be good but, so is it very different from summer camping?
杰夫：对~YJH_F[U&8J=E0KkP5。我觉得肯定会很好，不过是不是和夏季露营有很大不同？
Tim: I think that the biggest thing is that when you go out there it's really, really silent. You don't see a lot of thing out and about because it's cold. So it's just really quiet and it's really, really peaceful.
蒂姆：我觉得最大的不同是，露营地非常非常安静irD8eswG5c。周围没有什么东西，因为实在太冷了+o#Wk(MvTK。所以非常安静，而且非常平和Z6%cYF65]4_|x=iL。
Jeff: Is it safe? Can you die?
杰夫：那安全吗？会不会有生命危险？
Tim: Yeah, it is relatively safe. People do die doing it. For the most part it's really safe. One time we were caught in a pretty bad storm and we were coming back. The biggest thing is we came out and our car was covered in snow and we couldn't get out so that was a pretty big deal. Luckily the cellphone worked though and we were able to eventually get out but we had to dig the car out and call come people to come out and help us.
蒂姆：相对比较安全@l,TK0*!nz=a9^Ekz[。不过确实有人在露营时死亡9p7A9cTt9w)-5ac7I6n。大多数情况下很安全^g#EDkw;Av。我们曾经遇到过严重的风暴，不过我们还是平安地回家了WCvt)XEuiSuJ。不过我们出来以后发现我们的车被雪盖住了，我们不能离开，这确实是很严重的事情*sKb)d[u4W7c_。幸运的是，电话还能打通，所以我们找其他人帮我们把车从积雪里开出来，然后我们才得以离开jwB#E.-!1o8rsU;CZJ)。
Jeff: So do you follow a trail?
杰夫：你们会沿着痕迹开吗？
Tim: Sometimes. It just depends. Sometimes we just use navigation systems and just go out and go and pick points and go for it and sometimes we follow like ski trails that have like little diamonds on trees and you can point towards them and look for them and find them.
蒂姆：有时会]mNh3%[V-jVAs7。这也要视情况而定V%IpfaO@cImV=|wev。有时我们用导航就能出去，选择地点以后按照上面的路线走就可以，有时我们会沿着滑雪痕迹前行，那就像树上的钻石一样，你可以追踪寻找这些痕迹;El(c8eFE+。
Jeff: So do you recommend winter camping to people?
杰夫：你会推荐冬季露营吗？
Tim: Not unless you've had some outdoor experience. Not somebody who's just gonna go out there because you really got to look at the weather. You gotta have the right gear. If you don't have the right gear you'll freeze to death.
蒂姆：不会，除非你有户外经验Xe&m*Jl.)PVGu+oTWC7L。如果只是想去的话，我不会推荐，因为要考虑天气因素c32GeUqG5wkz%([。而且还要有合适的装备SdhA1.i%|.kLrhxcaI%。如果你没有合适的装备，你可能会被冻死F,EhBZPK|13G。
Jeff: So city people, don't winter camp.
杰夫：所以，城市居民不要去参加冬季露营jG5t0duc#)eAABMP9Ri。
Tim: Mostly yeah. I'd say city people better not winter camp, unless you've got somebody who's really experienced with you. I've taken my girlfriend out there and so you can do it as long as you're with somebody that knows what they are doing and you have the right gear cause if you don't have something that's waterproof and things that are going to keep water out you can't do it.
蒂姆：基本上可以这么说JdrRwciI%sdPzk-g#。城市居民最好不要参加冬季露营，除非有经验丰富的人随行7QFy0b;A^~Kh~i。我曾带我女朋友去过冬季露营，只要有了解的人陪同，有合适的装备，是可以去进行冬季露营的，但是如果你没有防水的衣服，你最好不要这么做.g.EHJu7TKYGx。
Jeff: Great.
杰夫：很好=3iE;Uy6Whnz8M。
