The year I moved to Oregon was the year that the SF Bay area family got stranded after they took a shortcut over the mountain. He died of hypothermia trying to walk out to get help. Later that year, a family in a class A motorhome got stranded for a month when they set out to winter camp. An elderly couple died in a storm when they accidentally drove onto a seasonal road, hit a drift and couldn't open their doors to get out. Freezing to death is hella painful. The stories are endless of people who don't respect winter in Oregon and go up the mountain unprepared. Never use hot water to unfreeze your door locks. Two days worth of food and water? Wasting propane for a camp fire? You are lucky you made it out at all. Please know what you're doing next time. And thank God for your sensible mom, the hero of this story.

[@deirdrepasko9056]

@@isaacturnerit when you go camping in the wilderness in a snowstorm overnight, you should have FIVE days of food and water with you! Also, Don't waste your drinking water on washing the dishes. Melt snow and use that. Oh, and when you step outside, Shut the door!!!! Spare keys,..........you should have an inside pocket sewn into the inside of your underwear, and keep your spare keys in there. That way if they fall out, (which they shouldn't if you make the pocket right), they'll be in your pants or your boots. @akroll008 is correct. You should NEVER use hot water to thaw your doors! Your windows could have shattered! I'm actually surprised they didn't. There are many things on the market you can buy at any camping store, that will do the trick better, that you should keep INside your camper, along with your hand-warmers, and your truck snowbrush. I don't understand why you used your hands and a putty knife to wipe off the truck when you should have simply used your snowbrush? EVERYone has a snowbrush for their vehicles, where it snows. I'm glad you made it out alive.

@@deirdrepasko9056 got ya! Ok

[@kirstenjones5331]

A few tips: when starting out with new equipment it’s always worth it to try it all out close to home. Spend the night in your own driveway or backyard, or within a few minutes travel. That way if something catastrophic fails with your gear you can get home safely. It lets you catalogue things you may need to plan in future travels (like a shovel to get snow off the roof & dig out tires, a can opener, tarp to cover the door/windshield to keep it from freezing shut, knowing not to keep vital items in a cab you may not be able to get to easily , access doors for propane and gear may freeze shut, etc.). I’d suggest whenever you get out of your rig and the heater is on, close the door! Don’t leave the cabin door open while you’re gathering gear or taking pictures. It’s making your heater work even harder, burning through propane faster, and losing all the heat you could’ve retained inside. It looks like you were opening that can with some kind of utility folding knife, such as a Swiss army knife. I can almost guarantee there is a can opener on that knife. Before your next trip look up how to use a SAK to open a can . I admire you for trying new things but please please do a little more to prepare in order to make you safe out there!

[@isaacturnerit]

Great tips thank you!

Winter survival is a must. I live in the north east. I learned at a very young age on seasonal survival. Now I am teaching my son. Power failures, stuck in any kind of storm, cooking survival, starting a fire in an emergency situation. Ther are many KZbin videos on it. Please becareful and for future bad weather issues, stock up on propane, batteries just in case, watch the weather carefully and charge up all that needs charging. And stick up on non perishable foods for power failures. Also be sure to have extra heavy blankets for weather like this both in the camper and at home. Glad the family is safe. Take care.

[@kdhartman44]

Shaking my head! What did we learn? Don’t leave the family during a winter storm warning, what if your water pipes froze and burst? Don’t go where you can’t leave to get back home because that heater is not reliable! Lay a tarp over the cab to prevent frozen doors! Letting snow pile up with the top up is just asking for several problems. Find a way to clear the snow off the top as to not fall on cars behind you and endanger families traveling behind you and risk snow sliding onto your windshield! I was waiting for your truck not to start! So many things could have gone really wrong here, just for a video. Great teaching video for your audience on what not to do try. Try and stay a little safer!

[@kathygirlygirl4109]

Isaac, you should store 1 large towel and 2 regular towels in your truck so you can cover your windshield and drivers door and lock and passenger door and lock. Yes you can push on the door but you risk denting them. Another BIG no no is NEVER pour hot water on windows. You had me panicked watching you pour that hot water. Remember to put your hide a key back and if you don't find the other one, make sure to have another made. They are expensive with remote though. You should store pillows and blankets in a vacuum sealed bag. We keep most of our stuff on our trailer so we don't have to think about it. Hope by priming the propane hose, you fixed your heater. Glad you stayed warm. Many lessons to learn on this trip. Always bring enough food and water that if you get stuck, you have enough for 1 week. I always pack more than enough because you never know. Then you went home to a branch through the roof! No power and little food. You need to learn to be a prepper then you just don't have those worries. Can you tell I'm a mom. We want you safe, warm, dry and tummy full. Hope you are working out the roof situation.

I spent a couple of decades working for the specific Federal Land Management Agency Ranger District that manages Junction Sno-Park (which is where you were) and will politely point out that the Central Cascades Fire and EMS station was about 600 feet away from you across the Crescent Lake Road and that the highway that you were stressing about as you drove up to Crescent Lake Junction (Oregon Rte 58) was about 1800 feet away...and it's a few hundred feet more to the Sinclair station (which also has a very large convenience store where you probably got the pizza) and a very nice motel. That being said, many of the previous comments about assuring your gear is up to the task are well-taken and you should take them to heart. Safe travels and good luck in your future excursions...

I mean I know all that why I wasn’t so worried

Glad you made it through and back home safely Isaac and the truck was faithful to what it was meant to do, 4x4s are usually best in weather like that majority of the time. Stay safe and warm too. Had seen Jaylena's video, when you gotten home, that was some scary with those falling trees and branches, especially with the branches broke through Ember's room, so thankful she wasn't playing in that area and she and Jaylena are ok too. Sending lots and lots of love hugs and prayers daily to yall too. Again, be say and warm also. 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🙏🙏🙏It'll be good to have all the emergency supplies on hand in events like these in the home and in the vehicles. Those power battery generators, like Bluetti sure come in handy for times like the weather situations 😉👍

Isaac, have you gone loco? Snow storms like that are dangerous & not to be played with. See how big of a snowman you can actually build, there on your homestead complete with scarf, hat, coal eyes & see if it is still around come April 1st? ❤ 😊

Please stay safe and be careful getting out and going back home.

Back home now

My doors freeze every time I get my truck washed. I just use brute strength..if that don’t work I give it a good shoulder slam! Probably be good if I dry the doors good, lol!

Isaac, so glad you made it out of there and even more glad for you that you had a spare key and then found the lost key..where was it ?

I found it while editing. Dropped right in front of the door as I came in

Great job on this video. I love it when everything goes wrong but yet in the end all is well. Remember one is none when you’re out there. Always have a back up plan. That goes not only for you but your family at home. Be safe.

[@isaacturnerit]

One hundred percent

[@JB-off-road]

Bro that was just a crazy video....lol...glad you got home.. Maybe in future videos you can go over your wheels and tires ..tire size wheel size. Maybe suspension..

[@isaacturnerit]

Thanks homie! Yeah I will

[@SheTookTheLongWayHome]

That's crazy how you figured out when/where you lost the key! So is it still there at the spot you were parked or did it fall inside?

[@isaacturnerit]

I found it editing! At the very end of the video you literally can see the key drop right outside the back door

[@shellevaughan-hoyt4063]

Might want to carry another heater just in case one doesn’t work

[@LauraE.9897]

Keep a can of de-icer spray for your locks, one in the cab & one in the camper. It works great for frozen locks & ice on windows. Its a life saver.

[@isaacturnerit]

Getting some!

[@lorig.9183]

Putt W40 all around the doors windows 🔒 locks on your truck and camper😊 so they won't freeze 😊

[@isaacturnerit]

Great tip!

[@mystuff1405]

Maybe the 1 of 2 things WD40 is good for.

[@sodbuster330]

you need to get a p38 to open a can,and a can of de-icer to use on locks and other stuff

[@isaacturnerit]

P38??

[@vickikusowski2256]

why would you leave your family knowing a snow storm might come and what camper doesnt have a can opener and spare keys just show up not buying any of this

[@isaacturnerit]

lol didn’t know till it happened

[@amberleecreations]

Toyota's are great in the snow!!! The only vehicle I will ever own! Great all the way around.

[@isaacturnerit]

Honestly it was surprising how good it was!

[@feathers352]

Putting silicon on your door gaskets will help keep them from sticking. I would take a small tarp with magnets and place over the door to keep the weather out of the doors. The hot water is not a real good idea as it can freeze almost as fast as it hits. Maybe a jackary with a heat gun could be something that might help in this situation. You always should have a hide a key. If you put in on the truck be sure that it is weather proof also. I really do not think that is best camper to use in these situations.

[@isaacturnerit]

Thanks for the tip

[@lindaterrell5535]

Hair dryer! Melts door ice. Also can be used as a heater.

I recommend getting a MR Buddy heater for backup. Its a very good heater and can be used inside, I have one and it works great and hasn’t ever failed me
