Braving a BLIZZARD - Truck Camping Alone in a Massive Snow Storm

In this video we head to the Sierra Mountains just before a snow storm is about to roll in. We were excited at the likely hood we would be able to do some winter camping in our Four Wheel Campers Project M Pop Top camper. When we arrived the first day it was dry, windy and cold but overnight the storm rolled in. We woke up to a fresh layer of powdery snow blanketing the mountainous area. The short trip to the snow quickly became one of our favorite camping experiences ever.

My advice is point your truck directly down the trail you came in on especially in previous snow tracks. That gives you pre-travelled vehicle tracks eliminating turning around on fresh snow and possible sinking and getting stuck

Hey guys, awesome fireplace install. Question, would I need any electricity in camper to install the propane Dickinson heater or is electricity just something nice to have to run vent fan but not totally required? Thank you. With Aloha, Matt
@prospectoverland
@prospectoverland 2 месяца назад
Thanks. Yeah you will need some power. It’s consumes very little 12v power. The radiant heat without the fan to blow it would not produce much. I would not recommend if you have no way to do power. I also run a 12v propane sensor. A small auxiliary power supply maybe like a goal zero or something similar.

How did you sleep with the winds and the pop up tent? Was it flapping everywhere?
@prospectoverland
@prospectoverland 2 месяца назад
The camper/pop top makes zero wind noise. It’s nothing like a regular tent material pop top. This thick vinyl siding doesn’t make noise. But the truck does turn into a big wind wall/block so the entire truck shakes around a little in the big gusts but noise is not the issue. We sleep very well, we have switched to a hest mattress and love it.

I just checked and I pay 11.95 a month. I get 10 free text messages. Then expensive per message after that. I ended up paying $6 extra in texts for this trip. Then I pay an additional $29 a year for extra search and rescue insurance so if I push the sos i wont get charged 20k for the helicopter pickup.
