BURIED in a Snowstorm | Off-Grid Truck Camping
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 жов 2023
- This week, we were surprised and nearly stranded by an unexpected snowstorm while living off-grid in the mountains. While my truck camper seems to be faring well, we still aren't sure if the van will make it out...

Words from an old man: After seeing you on Maddie's recent video. I decided to find your channel and I subscribe to it. Watching you Maddie and the dogs play, give me much joy. When I was young I use to hang out with smart Pretty Girls/ladies. Watching you and Maddie's videos Is like hanging out with my Granddaughters. They too are smart and beautiful just like you guys. Thank you for your video!
I enjoy both yours and Maddie’s channels. It is so inspiring to watch young women living such adventurous lives. Thanks for taking this 62 year old young at heart woman along. ❤️
where can i find maddie's channel?
You’ll find her under ‘Maddie Taylor’ :)
I agree with Belinder I'm a 78 year old man you both are so great and brave🤩
I think the oar is the perfect tool. It won't scratch the vehicle, solar panels or camper shell. I am a young 68 year old.🙏
@@SheRoamsWild Safe travels
So nice to see you smiling and so happy. The light in your eyes has returned.
It's been an incredible season of life :)
wonderful love to be with Off-Grid Truck Camping in snow
That was so fun. I remember hiking with a friend once a week for a year up the same mountain range and being able to experience all the seasons. Winter was my favorite. Thx for the reminder.
Glad you had a buddy with you. This is how I want to spend my retirement next year!! Off grid traveling throughout every state in the US. Wherever you are right now is absolutely beautiful! Being from LA, we NEVER see snow or cold weather really. 🐾🐾
Good evening Alex, Maddie & double ear rubs Terra & Eliza ! Here’s to Friends who are there for one another to share or help through any situation that may arise ! The meal looked so delicious ! Best of luck Maddie in getting your problem resolved ! Hopefully it’s something simple & not costly ! Congrats on your 1 year Anniversary ! Double Congrats to you & Terra for Celebrating 2 years since you were each Blessed with one another ! You ladies be safe, stay warm & keep smiling !
Loved watching both of your videos on the same morning and seeing the different perspectives 💜. Keep safe!
The beautiful environment you showed suits you well
The lake,mountains and forests with snow
And a good choice of car that is prepared for all weather forecasts
Have FUN and be SAFE
It was super how you helped Maddie out. You girls r living the dream that so many of us want to do. I have done my part. I will be 70 next birthday so warm and cuddling with all the amenities.
Happy dual anniversary!!! Tara and you are very lucky to have found each other!!! I just love love her silent treatment❣ PRECIOUS!
Thank you so much! I am so grateful to have her and this little home in my life :)
@@SheRoamsWild we have two rescued pups but like we often say it’s as if they rescued us by bringing so my joy and life into our lives. If you don’t mind me asking us Tara afraid of stairs that you carry her in and out? Sorry if you already shared that in an episode- lack of retention here. Lol

I watched Maddie's version of this story and now just watched your version. I have been following you both for a long time. I will have to say that you girls have inspired me to to go out and film and edit more. I am currently not living the RV/Camping lifestyle but hope to start doing that soon. You girls are very pretty and talented! I appreciate the boldness of you stepping out and taking on the road as solo female travelers! Let me know if you ever reach the Ozark Mountain region! I would be glad to show you guys around! Great Video...thanks for sharing!
Such a great time you had! Turning a snowstorm into fun.
Well done, especially helping a friend.
Watching this last night but was so sleepy, Terra loves the snow. Take care and enjoy girls.
i carry 2 - 5 gal buckets of salt ,the last time i was in montana , we were in rest area, spend the night there, the next morning we couldnt get out due to the snow fall the night before? went to a small store and purchase some rock salt , spread it around the truck/trailer and in front of me toward a path onto the highway, it took about 4 hrs, but were out, so since that trip , i carry rock salt and be prepared. on around trip i watch a man with a 50 foot hose from a propane tank and a harbvor freight blow torch to smelt down the snow to get out , its something else if you want to get out of the snow .
Great job using the "Oarvel" to clear the snow. Brilliant!
You've certainly done an excellent job with your truck and camper. 4WD is handy for winter weather. You and Maddie make good travel buddies and both your dogs too.
That's absolutely stunning scenery
It was gorgeous!
Very nice video. I enjoyed watching . Beautiful nature, woods and the lake. Keep going.
O my 😮 hope you all stay warm
Wow it looks like a winter wonderland! ❄️😍
I would equally be scared and excited. I totally want to experience this someday but we gotta prepare for it more. Also I can wait for Terra and coffee to hang out again and run around!
Your body makes enough heat, you just need the right gear to retain it. I have a TETON Sports Celsius XL Sleeping Bag that is rated to -25F. I get the XL so I can put my regular flannel sleeping bag inside it when needed. If for some reason you are in -60F, you can put a space blanket between the 2 sleeping bags to retain more heat. Don't sleep with the space blanket on you, you will sweat and then freeze when you come out. Baffin Titan boots are comfort rated to -148F.
Another fantastic vlog. 👏
Boy are you not prepared for winter. But like all things, you live and learn. Good Luck🍀
As a suggestion, highe end kayak semi solid paddle would be much safer to clean snow from solar panels
Yussss!!! Another Great Video thanks for sharing!!
I liked watching you make comfort foods in the cold
This video was in my suggested feed and I really enjoyed it! I'm now subscribed and can't wait to watch more 😊
That’s a lot of snow. So glad u have a heater. It may cost more to have these things but it’s worth it when u can enjoy beautiful scenery. So pretty
Couldn't agree more! It would be really hard to be out in the cold/snow without proper heat.
It looks like Maddie’s a great Cook! The mention of what she had cooked was like something on a menu that was perfect for me and then seeing it……sent me checking out “Soups” in my Southern Living Cookbook. Great video!
Geweldig!
Awesome video 💯
pretty damn awesome is pretty right lol. I was smiling soo much my eyes reared up. I am in Minnesota finishing up on my truck, build, and I’ll be heading straight south in a matter of a couple of weeks. Aren’t very many people in the Midwest doing what I’m doing that I know of.
You should invest in a Gethercover, windshield cover. It covers not only your windshield but your driver and passenger windows and allows you to fold your mirrors underneath. No need to scrape or brush snow off!
I mentioned it on another channel. If you make it to town, get some newspaper. You can crumple it up and stuff it between your clothing and /or bedding for insulation. I used it often when doing evening newspaper deliveries in upstate western new york in the 1980s. Plus, it's what the homeless used too.
My fav movie, man! Let's go bowling!
Girl get some gloves lol. The snow while cold, was just stunning. Tara sure enjoyed it. I'm in SC now and building on my van still. Yesterday it was 86 degrees out. Its still in the 40s at night but last night only got down to 61. I have a portable ac but still no heat source yet. Not sure what I can safely use in a mini van. Although I have one of the largest mini vans (20 ft), I don't have the height. Any suggestions? I sure hope Maddie got the heat going. Last yr with only an electric blanket and my Bluetti, I had to sleep.in -10 °.
You truly look radiant this week. Have fun and be safe.❤
Fair play you have inspired me too some thing similar
Awesome video ❤❤
Beautiful there 😍
I think this is one of my favorite videos from you!! Now I'm jealous because that seemed like the best little situation to be in!
Thank you Aaron! It was quite the adventure and I can’t wait to get back out in the snow again soon :)
Awesome video
Hello from Ontario Canada also a follower of who you are with also new to the channel
Beautiful
Winter came fast. I was telling my son about how your friend had no heat and he told that if you got the pray candles 3 or 4 of them would heat the van or camper. He used to use them when he live in an apartment and had no heat. Just a thought. I have been watching you for a couple of years now and enjoy them.
Just discovered your channel. Its so beautiful there 😍
Terra looked so happy in the snow! 🥹 Give you so much credit for sticking it out in the cold.
The Dude!! ❤
Awesome lifestyle and I definitely enjoy you talk..you have a unique way of talking and writing about your experiences I think you would make an Awesome writer because you are a very creative person with your words and expressions..be safe there definitely is a Beauty in the seasons and you describe them like a professional...you both be very careful and safe out there ✌️
I have a similar unit from Inergy called the Flex 1500 with 2000wh lithium (your;s 1152wh) and love it but it will not heat my van with an electric heater for any significant amount of time since most heaters are 800w and will run about 2 ish hours on 1000wh. I run a small fridge, lights, fans, recharge phones etc, c-pap, and cook almost exclusively with electric. My heat is from propane and a Wave 6 radiant heater and I have a back-up Coleman camp stove. I love your setup, plug and play solar systems are the way to go for those of us who are electrically challenged. Can't wait to watch your winter camping adventures.
Be safe on a snowstorm look good
Beautiful 😍
Just found your channel love it I'm a Rodeo Cowboy and I'm watching you a plus I own a cattle ranch your eyes are gorgeous stay safe and happy Journeys
Best choice toyota,I own a toyota tocoma trd off road 4x4 love it I enjoy your channel be safe
I recognized Barton’s voice before you said who it was 😂 - love them!! ❤
I'm a North Dakotan so seeing you clear off snow with an oar was very amusing. Fun fact if you didn't know: you can use a credit card (you don't care about) to scrap ice off your windshield if you don't have an ice scraper *in general*. Have you thought about getting a bigger ice scraper that you could maybe put in between your seats or something? It would be so much quicker. But considering you probably don't deal with snow that much it probably doesn't make sense to have one.
I’ve followed you both for a while now. Love the camper. I live ft in a truck camper too in SE Washington. Btw you two girls are really cute together!
Your hair is very pretty, something in medieval movies princesses have.
Nice video, like your dog too, even if it's too quiet sometimes.
👍
I just suscribed your channel. SO,hi from Izmir ✋😀
Love the scenery ! My Chester (golden) is so much like your Terra.... he gives me that silent treatment too lol :)
It was incredible!
Your hair looks beautiful. Beautiful curls and she was so giving you a silent treatment
I’m here because of the dog 🐶, I miss my Golden! ❤
Aww, they’re the best!
You have a great movie taste
While the snow looks beautiful, yuck lol. My days of enjoying the snow are sadly gone, glad you were having fun with Terra!
So fair! Not for everyone, but thankfully we still love it :)
Glad you and Maddie found each other. As you say it would be different alone
Wow where are you, so much snow
Going out to the garage now to stow an oar in the SUV since it worked so well as an ice scraper. Oh, wait, we live in Florida now, so . . .
Que bien está fresco 😂
Looks like you're thriving being buried in that heavy snow!
I was also inspired by Elsa and Barron's early videos.
They are so freaking cool!
First rule of thumb, have your gloves on. That's a good way to get frost bite really quick.
I absolutely love being out in snowstorms. I have a removable wood stove in my rig just for days like that. Absolutely loved this video!
It’s so fun! A wood stove would have been magical out there :)
Hi just started watching ur vlogs. I like it . Even more than that I think you are gorgeous. Ron from Australia
Mis , that thing on your nose so cute.
And you have good arrangement.
Can you go abroad for more adventures?
Where are your gloves Alex? Does Terra have a coat? So glad you have human company as well 🤗 Cinnamon scrolls yummy! 💜🇦🇺😁
I'm glad she said this is not a watch me eat
So amezing video
The dude!! My nephews call me Uncle Dude though not from the movie. Hah
Thats so cute! A Classic :)
If Ur hands ever get that cold always just sit on them. Thell warm.
How is your RV heated? Is it electric? I'm getting ready to modify my pickup truck this winter. Any good suggestions😊😊
GLOVES!
Do you have a broom? A broom works good for clearing snow.
OMG! Let’s not!!!!
You made me get up and cook me cinnamon rolls😁
Oooh enjoy!
hi, great video! can you tell me the name of the background music between 14 - 55 seconds? thank you!
Alexandra you are so gorgeous and Tarra is a very beautiful dog and I'm in love with you and your UA-cam videos
You make me smile baby
Why don’t you not have a broom, or snow brush. If your camping in the winter.
❤❤❤
❤❤
Wear gloves. I agree, Bluetti is the best system out there.
yep! lesson learned. they were still in storage as this was a pretty unexpected storm, but I have them now :)
Get a warm hat and gloves in your rig. Silly girls for not having those items already.
❤
Looks like Link lake out by Suttle.
👀
@@SheRoamsWild 😂😆
@SheRoamsWild I'm out in that area alot.
I want to be there with you 😅😊
Snow this early isn't a good sign, so get south and out of the weather. Become a snowbird, and get to safety. by the way, your hair looks wonderful.
And hate to sound like a old man but do you have a co detector with a open propane heater
I do, and it vents externally through the roof and is air tight in the combustion chamber :)
Why do not wear the Vest for your dog ???
LOL, I will never, ever understand people who like cold and snow. I lived in Ohio until I was 12, and southern Missouri until I was 19. I moved to southwest Texas as soon as I could. I'd never travel up north unless it's summer. My ideal retirement? Belize. I mean, if you like the cold, more power to you. But it's just nothing I'll ever understand.
Make sure her paws don’t get frozen! She needs a coat!
She has a coat and booties, and is great at telling me when she wants them! Her coat is meant for this weather, and during the day it was at or slightly above freezing :)
