Welcome to "Return to the Arctic: Vanlife Expedition in Winter," an epic RU-vid adventure unlike any other! Join me on a thrilling journey as I embark on an extraordinary expedition to the Arctic Circle, driving my reliable van all the way to Deadhorse, Alaska. But there's a twist - I'm taking on this challenging voyage during the heart of winter, braving the extreme cold and unforgiving conditions.
In this unique video series, you'll witness my daily struggles and triumphs as I embrace the frigid wilderness, living in my van while exploring the mesmerizing landscapes of the North. From the breathtaking Northern Lights dancing in the sky to the serene tranquility of snow-covered tundras, I'll capture it all.

Throughout my journey, I'll share practical tips and insights on vanlife in extreme cold, including essential gear, winter driving techniques, and how I adapt my van to handle the Arctic's harsh environment.
You'll also get a glimpse into my daily routines, from cooking warm meals in my mobile home to staying cozy in subzero temperatures. Join me as I showcase the resilience of the human spirit and the magic of life on the road.
Don't miss a single episode of "Return to the Arctic" as I bring you along on this captivating journey through the icy wonderland of Deadhorse, Alaska, during the unforgiving winter months. Subscribe now and be part of my incredible Arctic expedition!

This is 100% a completely different trip than my previous trip to the Arctic that I took in 2022. This NEW series is a trip to new destinations that I took in February of 2023 - one year later. Just like any Netflix show, television show or Hollywood movie production, it takes time to produce. I am a one man show on this entire project. Unfortunately there is just zero way possible to take the trip, tackle the elements, shoot the story of the trip and edit it all together WHILE I’m ON the trip. So, I spent a month on the road in February of 2023 to film and complete this journey. Then I spent another 3 months hunkered down editing this 7 part series together. And now, over the next 7 weeks you get to enjoy the fruits of the hard work. Peace out! Keep on Truckin’.

Chad, your movie making skills are superior. One recommendation, when you're discussing locations, add maps so that the viewer understands your route and your location waypoints.

The drone footage is always incredible. The fact that you take the extra time and effort to include it makes this that much more interesting. Instead of just “through the windshield” footage, we get to see the beautiful country you are travelling in. It makes a huge difference I think in the story you are telling.

10:03 mark: The Prince George ESSO fuel station: As a BC resident who watches far too many RU-vid videos of VanLifers & RVers driving from lower-48 to Alaska, it is so darn refreshing to see you pull into a fuel station and you not be surprised and confused by fuel being sold in litres and in Canadian dollars. It sounds silly, but it is so good. As the various top-rated comments here suggest, yours is not a typical youtube channel. I am appreciating and enjoying this.

Great video, I did a long trip pulling a tear drop from the Panhandle of Florida to Deadhorse Alaska in 2019, but in September and we got a light dusting of snow. It was beautiful and an epic trip and one my wife of over 40-years and I think about constantly. While our seasons were different, watching this video brought back some really good memories. I remember the first Canadian Tire Store we went into. My wife said "nothing there for me, I'll sit in the jeep" but then at the last moment she said "well I'll just walk around inside". Holy darn, she filled a shopping cart with stuff. She was so excited about all the stuff available. Safe travels
