Default 1990 Suzuki Quad freeze up question

First I want to say hi to all and hope the New Year is going well. I need help if possible. I just bought a 1990 Suzuki 250 LT-F4WD. Mainly because I got tired of shoveling snow. It works, plows and runs good, but Lately when It's cold and I park it for the night in a tent the next day one or both of the front wheels seem to be locked up. At times just moving it around will break them free but not every time. This last time one stayed stuck for over a day, but when the weather got mild it was rolling free as if it was never stuck. Whats happening in cold weather to seize up these front wheels in the cold? Thanks for any help with this.

Yes you were right. I pulled the wheels and drums off and there was some ice built up in there. After cleaning it out they haven't stuck. Thanks
