    I’d like winter if it was a blanket of snow making everything pretty and white. But the last few years it’s just been gray and brown with a day of snow before it melts.

    Yes. Fall is best but winter is definitely preferable to summer or spring for me.

    I like sweaters and fluffy coats and scarves and gloves. I also hate allergies and sweating. Being sickly pale, I don’t want to wear anything in public that shows legs or upper arms (see I care!!) so it’s extra awful.

    I love winter. Nothing beats the feeling of waking up on a freezing morning and putting on a good warm wooden jumper

    I love winter! The parks are mostly empty and there’s a lot less litter and obnoxious stuff going on. The kind of fishing i do lasts from November to April and I spend a lot of my time outside. Our house has a furnace but not central AC so it’s more comfortable.

    Honestly, I think winter, because while I can easily protect myself against the cold by wearing thick, warm clothes, I can’t really protect myself agains the heat. Even if I walk around naked, it’s still gonna be hit as fuck.

    Nope. I love warmth and sunlight.

    • Summer is best.
    • Spring is good because it means awful cold, miserable, grey Winter is over.
    • Autumn is next and it’s nice enough but tempered by the terrible knowledge that dull, gloomy, icy Winter is coming.
    • Winter is worst. Three fucking months of misery and dejection. Not even Christmas makes up for it.

    I live in the desert and love hiking, every season that I have clothes for is a perfect season, and I have clothes for every season, ergo every season is perfect.

    Winter: brisk exhilerating winds chill your exposed skin, keeping you cool despite your insulating layers keeping your core warm and toasty.

    Spring: It’s somewhat muddy, bring good boots as the ground is less stable from snowmelt and monsoon. The birds and bugs are alive and singing, the cacti and sagebrush are green and vibrant. Also, it fuckin wimdy my dudes.

    Summer: Bugs the size of hawks, wear repellant. The tunas are sprouting, don’t pick them yet, they aren’t good to eat. The sun is a deadly laser, wear white loose fitting garb, or moisture wicking high UPF fabric. Anything in between will leave you roasting to death.

    Autumn: It’s getting darker earlier, perfect for twilight hiking but bring protection, food sources dwindling means gutsy cougers. Dress with care, it will be uncomfortably hot while the sun is up but approaching twilight the temperature will rapidly fall, these temps won’t kill you, but they’re certainly uncomfortable.

    I loved winter when it was actually snowing. Now I prefer spring I think.

      Man, thinking about that makes me so depressed. Growing up we’d have the snow cover lasting for months on end during the winter, commonly several feet of snow too. These days we’re lucky if the snow remains for a week before it thaws even at the height of December.

        It is amazing how circumstances will mould the things we want. Our yard has been covered by 5 feet of snow since December. All I want is to see some green…

        Here in Poland, we have significantly less snow than we used to, but I just enjoy the atmosphere of winter. I totally understand you.

    I love the spring, seeing the trees and flowers starting to bloom.

    I hate the snow and the dark of winter.

    I live in the southeast of the US. Winter is my favorite and summer is miserable. Even spring might as well be summer here. I miss the snow from my childhood in the northeast.
