Stranded in A Colorado Blizzard - We’re EXTREMELY Unprepared for Winter (Raw & Intense) 

That wasn't a blizzard. That was a snow storm.

Girl, I agree with you. It made me nervous to watch you slide. It’s 2 AM, I’m a 73 yr old great grandmother watching you do what I would love to do. Thank you for sharing.

I’m impressed that you guy’s kept a level head and worked together in a difficult situation!! Congrats to you both!!

Hey guys, glad you stayed safe! During cold weather camping, you should get a second LP tank and attach it to the roof ladder. I have seen many do this and it is a great backup. In warmer weather just don't refill the extra lp tank.

Glad you are fine, Thank God! Life is about the experiences we live. Now you know how to get un-stuck! Love 🥰🥰🥰

Hopefully you learned your lesson on what tires you should have in winter months in Colorado. Also a winch is never a bad idea for what you guys are doing out in the woods. This could have been a lot worse learn from it and be more prepared. Looking forward to more adventures.

Guys Everytime you go on a new adventure, Make sure you take enough food, water, everythingbyou usually take whn going on a trip So you wont go on needing things. God Bless You! My 1rst time watching your Videos ❤

My Dad taught me , if you get caught in snow/ice you can use your car mats placed under tires to get traction. Please be safe with your travels.

You guys are so lucky to have such an adventure! You'll remember this for years to come!

This was WILD!!! That snow was so so deep. Makes for a great story!!! Thank goodness you guys made it out safe. SO EPIC!

Wow!! How beautiful but definitely a scary situation. Glad y’all made it out safely. What memories you’ll have from this experience. Safe travels!!

Crazy video! Stay out of the high country when snow is expected!

back in the 70's We were stuck in several feet of snow in Northern AZ , in a tent trailer ....definitely makes for a good story you guys did good thanks for the video !

I was really on the edge of my seat pulling for you both. I know you were already out by the time I saw it. BUT I LOVE THE ADVENTURE . SAFE TRAVELS and GOD BE WITH YOU BOTH

Thank God you are all safe ❤

So glad you made it out of there! Hope you will stock up on things to help you get out of slick situations! Looked like the pup enjoyed the snow!

Keep in mind that some mountain roads, especially park roads, actually close in bad winter weather. Hope you at least registered with someone because if the road closes no one may come by and if you get into trouble, you are just on your own.

What I think is awesome about this whole scenario is that you guys showed what it was really like... not just the fun, hiccup-free experience. Authenticity goes a long way. I really enjoyed this!

You both did a beautiful job working together to get out of a scary situation. Awesome content, keep up the great work.

Very well done with many lessons learned. Thank you for taking us along. Stay safe and God bless.

Grittiness makes the day for you, be tough mentally and be positive!!! things will fall in place for you!!! take care and have a nice winter ahead!!!!

I’ve had Lance campers, travel trailers and been in the snow, mud and cold, had dead batteries, run outta propane etc…. Buy 4 V-Bar chains, 30’ 30k tow strap, a Little buddy propane heater and save your camper batteries and propane. Buy a quick jump starter and carry a 3000w generator, gas and a pancake air compressor. You have to be totally self sufficient and can’t rely on anyone but yourselves. And carry bear spray when you are in bear country, especially when you go for a walk. Looks like you had a nice adventure. Enjoy it!

We just went through a very similar situation! Great job guys! Glad you made it out👍

You should drive out early when it’s cold, warm weather just makes the snow wetter and way more slippery!

So glad you guys are ok and got out. You were blessed no damage happened to the truck. Hard to believe this much snow ... Still 90 degrees this weekend in Texas. Loved seeing Barkley loving the snow. Thanks for sharing this scary adventure.

Oh. My. Gosh. 😱 I was holding my breath watching this!! Y’all did a great job! 🙌🙌🙌🙌 Thank you for sharing with us! 🙋‍♀️😘

A good rule for camping in Colorado in the months that have a "R" in them remember to have tire chains it can snow as early as September and as late as April, plus having full or a extra propane tank you never know safe travels.

That was very stressful watching I can't even imagine being there. You guys are a strong couple talked it through and got out. Great video just so glad you let us tag along on your adventures. Thank you and God bless.

Loved the video. You two learned a little here it appears. I could read the stress and the elation in both of you. The happy ending kiss brought a smile to me. Be careful and keep producing videos of your travels. Barkley looks like he really enjoys the snow too!🇺🇸🦅🌴🌴🌴

Nice show you guys making it out. I wish I could have been there if at all to help. The good thing was you were together to help each other out and that is awesome. Thanks for sharing with the community.

Colorado weather is unpredictable, especially in the high country. Glad you made it out safe.

Wow guys I’m so happy you guys worked together to get out of their i live in Colorado and what you experience could turn your adventure into a nightmare I think people sometimes believe a truck with big tires should get out of every situation but as you can see it’s not necessarily true it’s definitely a learning experience and it brings confidence in what I need to prepare for even when the weather calls for something different learning is growing and growing is maturity praying for wisdom and confidence in your next adventure God bless and take care❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

CONGRATULATIONS...you survived AND learned alot about cold weather / snow camping!! And, perhaps without realizing it, you learned alot about each other. You both seem to get along and I sense that continues "OFF CAMERA" as well! We camped in the same size Lance you have for many years and as we watched your video, we discussed what would would have done differently regarding staying warm!! Using your furnance will definately keep your rig warm, but based upon our experiences, and perhaps yours, it REALLY uses up your LP.. Here's a couple hints to consider re: getting more from your LP supply: 1. leave the oven pilot lite on, with the door open 2. find a clay pot, the size commonly used for house plants, and place it ocer one of your cooktop burners and lite the burner. IT will get very, VERY hot but it will radiate heat for many hours as it cools down. OBVIOUSLY, this can be a dangerous heat source and should be used with care nad only will you are awake. 3. in the morning, use the heat from preparing your tea, food, etc. to heat the inside. Consider getting a roll of "reflective insulation" (Home Depot) cut it to fit all windows and then pull your shades down. That will not only keep some cold out, but in the summertime, it'll keep the inside of you rig much cooler on very hot days. That's it for now....Keep Exploring and Having Fun!!

I found having a radio with a weather band helps--yes with extra batteries.. Dog helps too--our two dachshunds were perfect under the covers!

LOved it! I'm impressed you all were still nice to each other! And I really mean that!

Tire chains. Just in case. They work in muddy pastures too. You indeed found a wonderland, and all to yourselves. That's the best part about winter camping. Keep on keepin' on.

I enjoy watching camping out videos during severe weather -- and good ghost or bigfoot stories to boot! Lived in New England for 29 years, and I surely do not miss the weather!

So happy you guys are ok❤️

Glad you are ok. The pictures of the snow were beautiful. God Bless

I love the winter snow ❄️ camping! Probably my favorite to watch the vibes are so good. Even though it can be tricky for you guys

Great job getting out of the snow!! You guys are a great TEAM!!

Good job guys! I was holding my breath till the end of the video. I’d recommend snow tires, chains, a big shovel and any emergency items that you didn’t have. Get a 2-way walkie talkie as well. Keep traveling!

I really can't believe that ranger did not come back around to see if you were OK, knowing that you were the only ones there.

This was a scary video! Glad you guys are both safe! Stay safe out there!

I liked the style of video where you were discussing. It shows good communication and consideration in the situation that not everyone would think of when they face similar situations.

The snow should never come off in sheets when you are driving, because you should never drive with snow / ice on your roof. Don't be those people. Clean it all off well before you get on the road, no matter how long that takes.

Wow I’m glad you made it ❤

Yay!!! Team work! So glad you’re safe!

Thank God, that He helped y’all get through!!!

Great story guys glad you made it out ok, be safe out there.

I would be having the big one. How stressful.. you guys are amazing.

When y’all got unstuck I thought Amelia was going to do an end zone dance! Then as Connor was driving like Ricky Bobby in Talladega Nights to make it to the pavement I had to giggle. 😂 So glad you guys made it out!

At least they have fun!!!!

Yes it is a learning experience for everyone doing this. Goodluck getting out.

I’m glad you guys made it out! I live in Flagstaff Arizona and the adage is know your limits and drive like no one is going to rescue you. This keeps you from making bad choices.

That dust pan was effective! Beautiful scenery. That was hard to watch. I can't imagine how it was for you two. Great job!

OMG! I loved it!! What a beautiful snow storm and so happy you got out! Great job you two! Cheers! ~M

Oh my! Glad you are safe. Get warm!

What a relief it was I could see it in both of you to get out! 😊

This video doesn't remotely show how unprepared you thought you were for this excursion. It shows ingenuity, positivity and a calm collected spirit of adventure. Bad things can happen in warm, clear weather; dense, foggy weather or cold, snow blanketed weather. It's how people address, assess and conquer their concerns that makes them champion. You two, are champions!

Great job and video! Can you guys buy another propane tank and have it filled up as a spare? You could just set it inside your camper while you are traveling. Amazon sells a plastic base that the tank can temporarily sit in so it doesn't fall over when traveling. I use mine when I detach my propane tanks from the trailer and drive to the fill up place. Just a thought for emergencies...and maybe a few dehydrated backpacking meals for backup too. 😉 Keep up the awesome videos!!

Great teamwork!!! Although it was a winter wonderland, I would have been a bit nervous being the only ones at the campground . I think it will be a while before you are in snowy conditions again. Be safe. God bless! Pets to your adorable furbaby. ❤

Good thing it wasn’t a real blizzard or you may have had an entirely different experience. We have about your same setup with a ford f350 and an older lace. We added a low watt roof heater/air conditioner that we can run on a small generator because we got caught in a blizzard in Montana and couldn’t move for a week, the propane and wet heat and below zero temps wasn’t ideal. One gallon of fuel heats our camper for 15 hours of nice dry heat, no frozen windows. Love our Lance. We also have chains for the truck now. That blizzard taught us some valuable lessons in winter camper camping. We ended up digging out with a medal plate and a serving spoon, one of our sons “used the shovel” and didn’t put it back. It was an adventure of slip and sliding with nerve wracking stress! Lol

You guys had the right outlook! Kudos for not giving up! 👍

You both are a great team! You both stayed calm and just worked together towards a favorable result. Love your videos!

❤ you guys are so natural and amazing at having fun solving problems and just being happy many hugs and good luck!❤

Great job!!!

Great video, the suspense was nail biting. Glad you’re both save, stay the way.

Well that was scary to watch. I’m glad your safe and warm ! 💗

Thats alot of fun!!

I loved it! We’ve been there, done that. And could feel the emotions as we were watching you. Better than a movie! Thanks for posting,

Loved the video yall's teamwork is so incredible. 😁

Enjoy your time together. It's not the end of the world

Beautiful scenery, terrifying experience! Great job you two! Enjoyed this video!

so glad you succeeded with snow issue!! Love you two, keep on truckin’

Lol. I knew y’all looked familiar. If you remember, I was the ranger that told you guys there was a winter storm coming up.

Thank god you made it Take Care 😊

WOOHOOO - GLAD TO STUMBLE upon your vid!! - subscribed!!!

Wow that was crazy .Safe travels .

Glad you made it out safely!!🫂🫂🫂🫂🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

It is absolutely beautiful

slush is slicker than stick snow. plus, if slush freezes then it is solid ice. When the snow sticks to the tires then it grabs like making a snowball. So sticks to snow.

when you said you didn’t know where the road headed - I held my breath! Great job!

That must have been tough on your guys. I always carry kitty litter, sand , tire chains and foldable tire tracks in my truck for a case like this. You hope never to use them but if you need it, you got it. Safe travels!

All I can say is I'm thankful I'm camping in Arizona for the winter. It's great here. Come on down!

Omg……that was intense 😅. I was biting my nails and praying you’d get out. Thank God!

Brother the lesson learnt she ain't no help at all !!! Stay humble and stay blessed brother!!

Great job and yes I like your videos!

Loved this video!! Thank you for sharing❤

I enjoyed the video and I'm glad you two made it❤❤❤

Love that little dog baby!!!

you guys did so great congrats.

Good job getting out. Make sure you have enough food, water, a covers to keep from freezing. Keep those fuel tanks filled . My real solution is to head SOUTH where it is warmer for the winter!! Safe travels!!

Loved!!

It’s awesome that you guys worked as a team and didn’t get angry with one another. Hope you enjoyed your time here. Come back and visit anytime.

Good job driver! Good job guys! Looking forward to more videos! ❤

No problem.knew you could do it. Just had to get rolling.Good luck ahead.

That was a great video never you too excited like that thanks for taking us along love you both be safe on the road

This is how we learn.. The lesson today is a extra propane bottle and at least a cheap pair of cable tire chains. They will store in small areas and weight much less then chains. Thanks for sharing..

“We’re the only ones here.” That’s a big clue.
