‘Home-free’ residents prepare for winter in Durango

Frigid months can be fatal for people sleeping outside
David Surles, who camps on the west side of Durango, said Monday he’s ready for winter. He has a tent, three sleeping bags, five pillows and at least two sleeping mats. The tent has a tarp over it supported by a sturdy branch that will keep the snow off of his tent. Surles uses four different campsites that follow the sun to keep him warm or cool, depending on the season.
