Camping in Thunderstorms?
Greetings,
Given that overlanding takes us to places like remote mountain ranges and lonely open flood plains, miles away from shelters or indeed, weather reports, what are your experiences with camping when that Thunderstorm suddenly appears on the horizon? Is it best to just pack up, and head out, what are the risks of staying put compared to trying to drive away? Is it best to stay in your tent, camp near a high object, or out in the open? Is it anything worth worrying about? Any experiences would be great, as heading deep into the Andes and will no doubt end up in some terrifying storms...
