What is the best time of year to go camping near Jefferson City?

Fall is a favorite time to enjoy the great outdoors in Missouri, thanks to the double benefit of pleasant weather and the annual changing of the leaves. Spring also brings generally good weather, with mild temperatures and occasional rain. Summer is known for high temperatures and humidity, which make camping without AC less comfortable. Winter tends to be cold, with patches of snow, making it a less desirable time for outdoor recreation and camping near Jefferson City.
