Winter Camping - Storm Alert - Winter Van Life - Primal Outdoors

Took my Ford E350 4x4 Van Winter camping up in the cascade mountains during a winter storm alert. Up to 20 inches of snow was forecasted. Winter Camping during a winter storm alert should not be taken lightly make sure to be over prepared incase you get more snow than you planned and have to spend more days winter snow camping than you planned. Winter Van Life can be a lot of fun and it's great to have a well equipped van to be able to get out of the deep snow with.

Life’s too short to work yourself to death in a high-stress 9-to-5 job only to try and adventure into the unknown once your body is worn out and your soul is weary. Thanks for the glimpse into your journey through the world.

I was looking for your latest video this morning and saw it been three weeks and was concerned. When I saw the box on the dashboard of this video I knew what happened, I have two of those boxes. I’m so, so very sorry about Wheeler. He seemed like such a wonderful boy. He was so lucky to have such a great dad and I respect the fact that you didn’t mention it on the video. Glad that Daisy is doing so well. Stay healthy and safe and thank you for your wonderful photography and videography.

[@dbabini1]

I had a dog named Daisy, she was an am-staff, I do miss her she was such a good friend. in late 2010 we road tripped across the entire US for one year in my Subaru Impreza hatchback. We went everywhere, along both east and west coast, throughout the Midwest, Rocky mountains, the desert, you name it. When the trip came to it's end she was at her's as well. She went downhill fast I couldn't watch her suffer anymore, I put her down New year's Eve 2011, she was 14 years old. 2012 began with tears in my eyes.

People love seeing the dogs, but your right senior dogs come with extra challenges especially living in a van, pretty much every decision I make involves how will it effect the dogs. I would do anything to have Wheeler back, but its been a bit of a reprieve only having Daisy to think about, I am sure you can understand. Jason

Making the most of her company though and have to take her out using a flashlight for a latrine stop before going to bed at night because her night vision isn't good and we have retaining walls etc. Best wishes and stay safe from Australia.
