Summer moves

Summer offers long daylight and dry conditions, but it's peak season — more competition for dates and DC heat and humidity to manage. Hydrate the crew and book early.

Winter moves

Winter is off-peak, so availability is better and scheduling is easier. The trade-offs are cold, shorter days, and the occasional snow or ice to plan around.
