Some Improvised Winter Camo Ideas

Some ideas for camouflaging your rifle, gear, and person for snow without resorting to purchasing expensive over-whites or other camo gear. (Although I see that Amazon has full sets of over-whites including head covering and pack cover in prices ranging from as low as $54).

For the rifle it is mostly using white tape  and/or self adhesive (cohesive) bandage wrap (aka, self-cling wrap). The latter is available not only in plain white, but also winter camo patterns. 

For clothing and other gear, they have several ideas: getting a cheap tan or OD green jacket from Goodwill and spray painting some white patterns on it; weaving white strips of cloth through MOLLE; draping white fabric or white mesh fabric over a pack (I suspect a white mesh laundry bag with a draw string would probably work well); and using white tape (they show an example of taping up a helmet).
