Truck Camping in the Southern Deep Freeze | Offroading, Cooking & Hot Springs National Park

Join me as I take my truck camping journey through Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, and Arkansas during the Southern Deep Freeze! In this video, I camp in single-digit temperatures, visit the stunning Hot Springs National Park, explore the historic Helena-West Helena, and enjoy hiking, offroading, and cooking in the great outdoors. Experience the challenges and beauty of winter camping in the South with me. #truckcamping

Elvis's birth place, that's cool! I also really liked the dam you stopped at!

The bath house was definitely not what I would have expected either but it’s still pretty neat!!! What a cool town.

[@exploration_trail]

@@skye1775 me either! It was super pretty though

Glad to see you ended up being able to get up by the tower! I love visiting Hot Springs, especially since its only about half an hour away. Glad to see folks enjoying Arkansas! Garvan gardens has some really cool stuff if you're still in the HS area!

@@whuttontarnation2484 headed out further west today unfortunately, but Arkansas is definitely somewhere I’d like to come again! I’ll keep Garvan in mind!

This was so cool! Could you show us more of how you cook? I'm interested in seeing the process. Also, that vacant street, I wish you had explored it a little more. This is such a cool journey.

[@exploration_trail]

@@janroggeman1stClass got another comment about cooking too, I’ll definitely show more in the next video. I did film some more of the street but it wasn’t as interesting as what I kept in lol. I’m glad you’re liking it!

[@MahansRacing]

Love this so much Dylan!! Keep crushing it and thank you for taking us with you! Pat & Gina!!❤❤❤🎉

[@exploration_trail]

@@MahansRacing thanks guys! I loved your easier or harder video! That’s something I want to touch on in the future too. It’s comforting knowing you guys are out here living this life too. Safe travels and safe motos!!

[@marianneroggeman5984]

Just saw this video. Very cool! From freezing snows to hot springs, you're really getting it done. So looking forward to your next post. Stay warm and safe. ❤

[@exploration_trail]

@@marianneroggeman5984 thank you, luckily things are slowly starting to warm up :)

Hot Springs was pretty cool, but let's talk about that empty town in Mississippi! 1st, beautiful, but umm, weren't you thinking about zombies? 😅😂

[@exploration_trail]

Helena Arkansas? I was thinking more like I hope I don’t get jumped, zombies didn’t really cross my mind hahaha

[@mycarolinagarden]

@@exploration_trail That's funny because zombies invade your dreams so often 😂

[@alouluna]

Hope those dogs werent abandoned!.

Them ditch lights look like they hitting your hood a lot

Hello from Knoxville, Tn. Yes bro it’s been cold asf the last couple days. Best time to camp imo tho

[@exploration_trail]

@@gavingibson5628 Hey! Yeah, nobody else is out and there’s no bugs!

[@gavingibson5628]

@ no bugs is huge, and it’s fun to build a massive fire when it’s super cold. And I get to use my 15 degree sleeping bag which I never get to use!!

[@exploration_trail]

@ For sure!! I will say I’ve been using my 0 degree bag and I’ve still been cold out here haha

[@gavingibson5628]

@@exploration_trail what bag are you using? Is it down? I’ve got a rei magma 15 and I’ve slept toasty warm in it down to about 20 or a little under, haven’t been able to test lower than that. I love that thing though

[@exploration_trail]

@ it’s a keencamp. I’ve been getting temps from 7 to 27 degrees at night and my feet are always cold lol. Still, I’m very grateful to have it

[@marianneroggeman5984]

P.S. The public baths Opa and I used in Edinburgh were nicer and also had a large swimming pool. Didn't even know they had these in the U.S.
