[@oneadVANtureatatime]

It doesn't get any better than a snoak. 😂😂 We are not driving by many hot springs without stopping this time of year.

Thank you, Jody! A big thank you to Bill at NomadderwhereVan for additional drone footage.

[@Scrambler85]

Just WOW, maybe your best video ever. Amazing adventure, great scenery, beautiful drone footage and professional level editing. First time you've done something that would have made me wimp out 😂. Maybe 20 years ago 🤔. Much respect for this one. Always a thumbs up 👍

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

I wanted to wimp out but Carrie pushed on. 😂😂😂 So glad we went for it. Snow and hot springs are one of my favorite experiences of all time.

[@esthers5772]

You guys are amazing. I would never have ventured so far with that forecast. But wow, what a magical reward for your bold adventure. Every week since you have highlighted Idaho, I say to my husband “this is not how I pictured Idaho”. Obviously it’s not a secret to those in the know. Can’t wait for the next video. Happy trails.

[@wims58ej]

Love you guys, you have given me so many new places to boondock. Thanks!

[@andreavale1184]

Yes you have a goal! 20,000 subscribers! Such a fun video snoaking! Roodle was a party pooper wasn’t he? 😆 take care, stay safe. ❄️ 🐶 🚐

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Our subscriber count has been going up so slow 😢 We might need to start asking people to subscribe more. I wish Roodle enjoyed a hot spring as much as we do. 😀

[@sylmac65]

I retire in 3 months and you guys get me so excited to start my next chapter living the van life. Hope to meet you some day

[@EatSleepRVRepeat]

You guys blow our minds! It's presently 51 degrees here in Florida. For the record we have the heater on & our tucked into our quilt. Amazing trip! Lou & Angie

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We have to admit we are just now starting to get tired of the cold😂😂 We hope to drive to warmer weather in the next week or so. Currently, we are at 8000 feet in Utah and it's forecasted to get near 0 by this weekend for the low. Florida is sounding nice to us right now.

[@EatSleepRVRepeat]

@@oneadVANtureatatime South Florida is experiencing a cold front. Tonight it's 49!!!! Heater is on full blast...lol Lou

[@kellieschultz1445]

So beautiful, I am blessed to be able to see this through your eyes because of my health would not let me get up there.

[@mysticalmisfit1332]

🙌🏽🙌🏽 Wow! That looked amazing but I’d be afraid I’d catch pneumonia.😃 I cracked up when Carrie said Dave looked like the Hunch Back & looked like he was wearing a tent🤣🤣🤣

[@freedomdove]

Thanks for taking us along on your snoawk. Nice tent, Dave. Lol.

[@rositagarcia805]

Thank you guys for talking us along. I wish I was there with you guys. Poor roddel when he was looking down at you guys 😄. What a difference he was going back home (van). Coming back down was scary when you should us those rocks you were walking thru. Those drome views here beautiful of all the snow. Thank you again for letting us see those beautiful places thru your eyes. Stay safe.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you for all of your kindness! It was a slippery walk back! We bought Micro Spikes to pull over our shoes after this hike. Roodle has never been happier to see the van than this time. 😂😂😂

[@lyndasmith6801]

Hi guys! Wow!!!! What a great video. Nice job on the opening sequence! Haha turn for the better. Comfort zones are hard to get out of Dave! SNOAK....I love to make up words...that is a great one! That trail was gorgeous... Great views...the snowy walk back so pretty. Roodle cracks me up. Funny dog. The snow was amazing. And the hot springs.... Stunning. Your drone shots and music were amazing as always. Great job!!! 🤗💗

[@TedLambert67]

U Guys ROCK!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you, Ted!

[@jodiklebs1288]

Hi Dave and Carrie! My husband , Curtis and I, love watching your videos and look forward to them every week! Carrie, I am so proud of you for wanting to do this adventure. We have watched all of your videos from the very beginning and I love the fact how much you have grown and changed, willing to take on more adventure. Super job! We plan to have a nomad life as well in about 3 to 4 years. We are taking our time and slowly selling everything without panic. We also have financial goals that we are saving for so we can have this lifestyle. Just so you know, the videos that you claim are "boring" , regarding daily chores, are very insightful, and we enjoy them very much period so feel free to do more. LOL! I have been documenting, all of the cool places you guys have been and all the things you have recommended about each location and adventure. Maybe one day in the future we can catch up and say hello. We'd like to thank you for paving the way for us and making the transition a whole lot easier. Fondly, Jodi K.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We would love to meet up with you guys sometime! Thank you for all of your kindness. You are going to love this lifestyle so much! How does it feel to get rid of your stuff? I loved that part of getting ready! It feels like a huge load off your shoulders to me. Our email is listed in the description of every video if you have questions we would love to help ease your mind. We could even set up a Zoom call. 😀

[@kennykidd777]

Hey David great video man! I love doing stuff like this getting out of our comfort zones like you said! I can feel the joy and happiness of your journey! Keep sharing these great moments!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you, Kenny! Every time we get out of our comfort zone good stuff happens! Take care my friend.😀

[@yt3141]

Great adventure and video! It's sure busier than when I was first there some 30 years ago and could often be the only one even in the summer.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We hear that year's back it was on the national news and has been super busy ever since.😢

[@maggiebrattoli383]

I love your videos and your crazy ideas ( spend a freezing night in a tent instead of the warm homey van?) only you guys. Great video. 🥰🥰🥰

Thank you, Maggie! Sometimes it takes a cold hard night sleep on the ground for me to appreciate how awesome our van is. 😀

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you, Scott! Snow, and free hot springs! Our favorite combo.

[@pamelag2223]

That Roodle! Like a horse that is headed for the barn, he knew he was going home! That was quite a hike back, glad you made it safely. Thanks for your hard work to share this!

[@michele2017promastertravel]

What a great video. Just wanted to mention I'm in a group on fb called Promaster Build Out and there was a post about traveling with a dog. I linked your video about traveling with Roodle and the lady responded to me that they loved your KZbin Channel. It just made me smile.

[@LucysVanAndale]

I have watched your videos off and on and recently have been bing watching on my TV (with my dogs). Your videography is truly amazing. I love how down to earth you both are. It absolutely peaks my interests. I love how you are always concerned about your dog as well. That's awesome. Thank you for sharing these awesome places. I will never be able to reach some of them but absolutely enjoy watching your journey. 👍🏽🐾

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you Lucy, for your awesome and kind comment! We are having a great time sharing this amazing lifestyle. We are wondering if your dogs respond when they see Roodle on your tv. 😂🐕🎾

[@LucysVanAndale]

@One AdVANture At A Time my dogs are all seniors and are usually sleeping 😴 💤 But my grandog is a pug and yes, she reacts. She'll run to the TV, it's very funny.

[@LucysVanAndale]

[@discoveringlockenest8420]

Ha we laughed our guts out watching Dave’s “hunchback”! Beautiful place, but we were distracted some! 😁🤙

You guys are so much fun!! Crazy in a good way! Funny to us how much you enjoy cold. We are heat seakers LOL... thanks for sharing, Paul & Magen

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Hi Paul and Magen! It's definitely not for everyone. My favorite is watching large snowflakes fall from the sky while sitting in a natural free hot spring.😀😀😀

[@seasyourjourney8482]

What a fabulous experience thanks for taking me on this hike. physically I could not do that. I don't think I would appreciate the snow as much as you guys did beautiful captures of the scenery

[@NomadderWhereVan]

Loved this so much! So happy we got to enjoy this adventure together!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you, Jen! Snow and hot springs are two of my favorites!

[@aztrails1]

That hike in was a great idea!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you, Jeff! To think I almost talked Carrie out of it. 😂

[@bertkelly7650]

Always enjoyed your videography, but this is spectacular!

[@SemiRetiredBob]

Glad you didn't fall and bust your ass on the slick trip back. It was nice Roodle got to go run off leash some though it surprises me he doesn't care for the hot water.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We ended up buying some Micro Spikes after this trip. They slide right on your shoe and make it nearly impossible to slip. I love them already and recommend them highly for snow and ice walking/hiking. I wish Roodle liked the warm springs, maybe it's the smell as well.

[@msvideotime]

[@taapbfaapbtaapbtaapb7160]

By far this is your best video! Great editing and transition. What a beautiful setting.

[@TrustNotMyHeart]

I dont know why I laughed so hard at Roodle use to being in comfort, in the van, with the heat on. He was like this is a cute hike but where are the true accommodations? Lol

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

I know right! I don't think snow camping and hot springs are Roodles thing but he was a good sport. 😂

[@Thesaltymedic36]

I personally would have no issue tent camping a night to bathe in a hot spring in the snow. My wife would tell me to pack sand 😂 Looked great 👍🏼

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

It was awesome, the hard part was not having a sleeping mat to insulate us from the hard cold ground. 😂

[@fastgurrrl]

Neat! Roodle like, let's get the hayull outta here!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Yep, roodle was NOT a fan!!

[@DaHeeBeeJeeBeez]

Great video! Crazy how you'll picked hotsprings to go to in snow :) How does the van do in snowy conditions? I have a promaster 1500 too and worry about how it will handle in snow.

[@freedomdove]

For me, the worst part of a hot spring in winter would be getting out of the warm water into that freezing air. Brrr!!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

The hot spring can raise your core temperature just long enough to dry off and get dressed if you hurry. That's if the water is warm enough. We just soaked in one that was only 97 degrees and it was 15 degrees out. Let me tell you......it was hard getting out! Just like you said. 😂

[@freedomdove]

I'd have to be in there so long to raise my temp that I'd be a total prune when I got out. Lol. I do know what you mean, though. I sleep with a heating pad and my body temperature is quite high in the morning; so much that I don't feel the cold for quite some time. When it does hit me, I'm freezing. 😬

[@dianep3071]

That hike is gonna be bad when you hike back.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

It was a bit icy! After this hike back we bought Micro Spikes! 😂😂😂

[@dianep3071]

@@oneadVANtureatatime there ya go I was thinking some kinda spikes you slip over your shoes

[@mckennacreative6133]

So glad you guys have each other. Would you do that by yourself? Maybe I would do it now after I watched your video. What emergency gear did you bring? Did you have cell service in the tent? When the video showed the snow In the morning ....Oooo! Beautiful. Loved the video. Love Roodle. Love you guys.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We did have cell service at the spring! I probably would not do this alone in the middle of the winter. That said this spring gets enough people hiking it to make you not feel alone most the time. We did bring rain gear and lots of wool clothing. Plus I packed my water filter and headlamp. For some reason this 2-mile hike in feels like 3 miles.😂 The soft falling snow is one of my favorite things ever!

[@stone8654]

I would've talked my way out lol Only problem i would of had is changing clothes in a cold tent and walking in snow in sandles

[@Julied319]

Beautiful! What brand of jacket is Roodle wearing? Looking for something like that for my dog. Thanks! Great videos!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Roodle was modeling a coat from Ruffwear. We bought it off Amazon. 😀

[@dominiquetamer8242]

This reminds me a hike in the Pyrénées (moutains at the border between France and Spain). One day, there was too much snow for skiing, and with my group of students, we went to a wild hotspring. Bathing naked with a lot of snow all around was an incredible experience! (By the way, do you know if nudity is possible in this kind of springs?)

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

There are many pools here and some are private. I am sure nudity is common. Many of these hot springs in the western USA you can enjoy nude.😎 Hot springs in the snow rocks! That experience never gets old for me. 😎

[@PAPOLE1]

He looked like a walking kite lol nice place roodle was feeling cold he’s glad to be in the van stay safe thankyou for the trip

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

I felt like a kite! Roodle was so excited to jump back in the van! He likes snow just not that funny heated water.😂

OMG u guys are nuts 🙌🏽 how cold was it to sleep in the tent in the snow??

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

The night was not so bad but it was pretty rough getting out of the sleeping bags in the morning! My hands were so cold that I could hardly handle the controls on the drone! Bill was smarter and flew his drone while soaking in the hot spring! 😂 This made for a great memory for all of us. 😎❄️☃️

[@lynnm635]

I enjoy your videos. Well done. In your introductory video showing the van at various locations can you tell me what is the location of the van driving through area of red soil and large boulders. Moab? AZ.? and what place is the van parked next to large body of water? sea,great lakes?

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

+Lynn m hi Lynn... you are correct on both!!! Red soul and boulders is south of Moab Boondocking Indian Creek Recreation Area Near Monticello, Utah kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoSkdJmdmtlsjqc And the large body of water is Lake Superior EPIC BOONDOCKING In the UPPER PENINSULA Of Michigan kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnfJkmOXpstme6s

[@nomansvan827]

Looks like a great place to check out. I’m probably going to go a little earlier in the year. Did you get a site for your photography set up?

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

+Nomansvan2019 I working on getting Etsy all set for digital downloads. I would really prefer for anyone purchasing a photo to get a print in hand but I have not been happy with any site that I have found. Usually the person buying pays a higher price and I only get a few dollars. I’m okay with making a few dollars but not when the person buying is paying a higher price! Thanks for asking and keeping me motivated!

[@LibbyRal]

Thank you and NoMadderWhere for such beautiful video. Was all your gear and doggo in the tent? How did you dry off without freezing to death? I'm so glad I found your channel. Subscribing now. I hate the cold but this is an adventure I'd love to have. Cold is different when your active in it - like skiing or making such an adventurous trek.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you Libby for subscribing! The hot spring keeps your body's core temperature up for a few minutes when you first get out of the hot spring. So we hurry to dry off and get dressed before the cold settles in. Yes we kept everything inside our tent. I even used my pack for a pillow. I will admit we have had better nights of sleep. 😂😂😂

[@fairrider3346]

COULD NOT ASK FOR A BETTER HOT SPRINGS DAY. PERFECT. MY DOG WOULD BE NOSING THROUGH THAT SNOW LIKE A LITTLE 170 POUND BULLDOZER BUT HE IS BUILT FOR 20 OR 30 BELOW ZERO.
