Nothing better than to weather the storm when you know that you’re safe and warm.
That is so true.
And plenty of food / beverages and snacks
Dina Kogan and weed 💙
I feel you
Amen to that!
Thanks brother, I served in the Army from 1980-2005, and suffer from PTSD. After I retired, we decided to move back to Maine woods and it was the best decision we ever made. Your videos bring me peace.
As a fellow camper, I think we are set up best for isolation during an emergency. My husband and I talk about how we would have all we need if there were a big earthquake, we are in Southern California very close to a fault line so our preparedness is related to that.
Hello
All good folks, I live in the Bay Area,Ca. Best thing,is to repent, prepare and to meet the Lord.
Thats a nice little camper. Everybody needs one of these
Stay safe out there. This entire event is teaching us all what we can live without. You have a warm place to sleep, food, and your health. You're a rich man. Thanks for the video. We all just need to get through this and hopefully, we'll be kinder and more appreciative on the other side. Peace to all.
Well said Chris, I also wish you and everyone peace and safety.
Chris DiCroce Official : soooo true Christian . Focus on joy each day. Appreciate everything
Keeps you grounded. Take care .
Toasty inside the trailer over the night. And that probably the highlight for myself slumbering inside it.

are you talking about people or entertainment??
That little camper is so sweet too
Thank you for sharing a little of your life with me, it is such a lovely distraction from everything that is going on. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Your travel videos are the coolest. A "Nothing to it but to do it" attitude. A man and his dog and sometimes a few friends. Your videos definitely have a more "real feel" than most others. Keep up the good stuff.
Stay safe out there!
Really enjoyed watching you with your A-liner. Told my husband if he ever kicks the bucket on me, I’m selling the travel trailer and getting me another A-liner. Loved the one we had many years ago. So easy to pull and to set up. Hope you enjoy it for many years to come.
Love it man as an ex iraq vet with mental heath issuses , this is great and helps me man
Thanks for your service.
💪🏼🇺🇸
God bless you and thanks for your service. Stay strong - stay close to Jesus Christ - He will help you - don't give up, I'll pray for you.
Hold on, great, i am from germany and also suffered post traumatic disorder.
Nature, even bad weather grounds you and even heals. Thank u for your service, i am Bavaria national guard and liasonofficer to the US army
sacha eves big hugs 💗 thank you for your service & be safe through this mess that we are going through right now. Take care 🌸
sacha eves thanks for your service stay strong 💕
You seem like a legit good dude..stay healthy and safe in the wilds out there!
Using insulation, like the hard pink kind. Inside big windows and pull curtains shut, help keep heat in.
This is great; when you want to get away from literally EVERYONE, you're actually able to do it. And do it for several days. Hell, I can't even get one hour.
Elliott Avant 🤣😂
Me either......me either.....😕
Neither can I, get away for an hour or even less!

ppppp
I miss living in my camper van and having everything I owned with me!
I've seen a few other Aliners in the winter (Slim Potatohead) and you all have issues with insulation and condensation because so many pieces of metal, like the hinges, bridge the inside and out. I think one guy used pool noodles to help, he also installed a wood burner. Keep warm and safe.
You’re the best. All real no put on just you. Be safe
3:00 noisy near freeway I bet.
My camper, at night, I shut heat off & crack windows for no condensation. In morning, stay in bed, turn heat on, start coffee & get up when warmer. Saves propane & no condensation. I try to park to get morning sun through the biggest window. Walker Lake !
You know he likes to camp when it looks like he brushed his hair with a work boot..Great videos bro i really enjoy them.
Wow!
Rude!
Love the peace and quiet
I really like the way you use the levelers on your jeep to level the Aliner, never would have thought about that.
Cool! Eco Flo, Blue eddy- details, Rubicon Jeep, jackery 100 solar panel, max soak, in case no one has told you, dimples, quite fetching.😉
subbed and liked after 35 seconds. a guy and dog in a warm camper with snow everywhere, way to go!
Omg please come and get me. I've always wanted to camp in the snow. Ahhh heck for that matter any camping trip as long as it's safe!Mannn I'm so jealous!In a extraordinary way though 😊Even though I can't join you in all that beautifulness. I'm going to imagine myself there😊and thank you so much for sharing such loveliness 😊👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾💛💚💛💚💛💚💛God bless you and yours😊
Dirty girl wants some nookie poon tang in the wild Im guessing eh you naughty thing you.
I am always amazed at how many views videos of snow camping get.
It makes me smile a lot of these tents and other stuff haven’t even got a porta potty so where are they supposed to go especially if if you are camping in snow
Same as you do when tent camping. Most state campgrounds have toilets and running water to wash with. In the wilderness, dig a shallow hole to use that, or you can buy a camping toilet. Wet naps are a godsend, and on some surplus or camping sites you can get whole body wash towels. Truck stops often have shower facilities for a small fee, too. None of this is hard.
Damn dude you "Get it"! So glad some do! I have been stuck in Boston waiting to go to Taiwan and then I slip down to West by God Virginia to my cabin and get that beersolation!
I really enjoyed your video. You are correct that we shouldn’t take basic things, such as heat, for granted. The doggie is adorable and very happy.
too cool for school, great way to tackle the madness we are facing, a tiny slice of nothing is the greatest thing we need, no human contact sounds like bliss
I had a 2002 Aliner for a while. I remember parking at a free camp near Noosa which was FULL of backpackers. Then that night, boy did it rain. It was tropical rain but the temperature dropped too so it was very cold. In the morning I remember watching all of the poor souls from the window of my Aliner. Many of them were completely drenched, picking their stuff up out of the mud. Rough night for these young ones. Some were sitting in the aftermath of the rain with the most miserable faces I've ever seen. And there I was, watching them all through the window with a warm coffee in hand, the King of the Campsite.
(I dramatised it a bit but it is a true story)
You're living the life I want.
What life? Doing nothing. That's not living.
Ptguy0618 What a pathetic, bitter person you are.
Joseph Jakubec pastoral living in other words. Not for me but I appreciate it in this hellscape
eQuariuz maybe for you. To each their own.
Ditto ❤️
Great place to self isolate from. Can't find a better reason to go camping either. Thanks for sharing
Another great video, I just love your set up. 100% perfect.
The joys of the American off road available adventures and equipment to do it so achievable it love Americana thanks for sharing!
Great Planning on your part!! It's good to like being alone during those times. Looking forward to your friends & Family when your ready!! Blessings!!😄🍀
Hello Lois
I absolutely dig this dude. I live in a camper here on a farm. I love it. So peaceful
Love your set up! I’m particularly interested in this set up since I’m toying with the idea of a similar rig for me! Love your vids! Stay safe and healthy.
We had an A-liner for years before retirement. Great for those 1 week vacays in the fall and summer. A/c unit right by the door, able to sleep so cool at nite. Pull in and set up so quickly anywhere. Freedom it gave us, so precious!
I have almost the exact Aliner that you have. It is so nice to have the additional storage space in the front.
You are sooo brave and content I would be scared to go to the bathroom at night I am a girl lol... No shower I would pass out I admire you guys being able to handle it...
That's why I'm more interested in the ALiner LXE or the Rockwood A214HW, both have wet baths
@@kharizmahs504 yes I need a wet bath and a toilet
the last time it snowed when both my dogs were here..may they both RIP..miss them so much..anyway the snow always brought the puppy in them out..i always said they got in touch with their inner wolves.
I love that you’re doing this, and your rig is fine! Thank you for bringing ⛩ Peace with you everywhere you and Coda (?) go!
One thing is consistent in all these camping vids. They all eat well.
Sensible attitude man, nice setup, some lovely footage, keep it coming!!!
Yeah it's getting real. We live off grid and for the most part other than picking up a few supplies we don't get out much. We love camping and are well equipped for most anything that nature can throw at us. I do feel bad for folks who are having a hard time. Stay safe hopefully we'll cross paths somewhere in the future.
This video made me sleepy... looks so comfortable to be in. I would just prefer something bigger enough for basic stuff like a bathroom & kitchen to cook.
there is actually a bathroom and a shower, plus a sink that you can use with a cooktop. This has a lot of room.
Great Jeep. Great camper. Great dog. Great attitude. You're living the life!
I had to laugh when you said it 'snowed'. I live in a 21ft Fleetwood wilderness that I have remodeled from the shell up. We have lived through winter with 4ft of snow and literally 0°… I highly recommend the mini woodsman stove for camper heat.
The A-liners are too small for that and the condensation build up inside even worse. Totally not designed for winter camping but a shelter is a shelter in a pinch.
Slim Potatohead uses a wood burning stove in his Aliner and there are videos of people using them in vans. Where there's a will there's always a way. You may just have to improvise.
@@Amy_McFarland the mini woodsman stove is made for campers. It's about 1'x 6" and can heat about 300sq ft. Again, that's what it's made for so saying differently means you haven't done your homework before responding to my comment.
@@gaiahypothesis9 I own the stove and I've owned the A-liner. Experience was my homework but thank you for the kind words.
Smart back up sources.*🙌
Thank you so much for taking those vids. Pls keep em coming, bro! This keeps me from getting totally down. Good to know, you're still out there.
Have a good time and keep on rolling....
I carry 3 tanks last 2 weeks . Also I use 4 batteries helps make it last 1-1/2 weeks before need charge up . Use 100 watt pannels 2 of them = 200 watts to charge in 6 hours.
Put mudlaps on your truck it will save the front of the camper bro 🖒
*flaps
I have a A liner and my biggest issue is the condensation around the metal by the bed overnight. I put foam around the edges that fold up,and down to stop cold air coming in but that condensation tend to get my blankets, pillow and stuff a little wet.
Nice Jeep, I have same one but black. Love it.
I'm jealous chilling in a warm camper relaxing watching the snow coming down! 😏👍
wow...we had an Aliner.....smaller but we pulled with a tricked Harley.......great times!!!
Thank you for the video. I've been watching Mr Potato Head with his Aliner. He used ether pool noodles or pipe insulation on the edge of his hinges and edges to prevent the loss of heat it seemed to work real well for him. Just a suggestion to help out! He also built a small wood stove for the inside of his with a chimney and it worked on wood pellets so it would last longer and use less wood he really is quite the inventor!
I prefer to take a goat instead of a dog, for the goat you can find food anywhere, grass and similar, and provided two liters of delicious milk daily
@@TheMariepi3 If times get really tough, grill that goat!
God Bless You and your beautiful dog. She seems intelligent and special. I hope you made it safely home.
I'm envious of your trip but intimidated by the amount of alone time.
Huge hello from Ireland...I'm so jealous would love to do what you do with my 2 little ones .wouldn't know where to start with all those gadgets .what a lovely simple life be safe x
Now that's what I call Camping nice clean camper and a decent four-wheeler to pull it on
I thought I was watching slim potatohead when I saw the A frame camper.
He could use that kick ass wood/pellet stove Slim Potatohead built through.
at first i thought so too! love watching slim potatohead
Lol, me too!! I had a brain freeze as I watched slim convert his new camper but was figuring he was out one last time with the aliner!
Me too
Me too. Nothing like Slim, right?
that rv is ADORABLE!
Cute dog! That is a dusting of snow... i was expecting feet
Love your Pitty and Jeep!! And your adventure!!
An impact driver or drill with a 3/4 socket will buzz those stabilizes down in a few seconds. M
I tote Ryobi tools & their vacuum cleaner for hobbies & easy cleanups. DC charger, too.
Cordless drill with socket can lower stabilizer in seconds. Buy few extra stabilizers and don’t bolt on so you place where you like. It makes huge diff.
I saw you on that overlook by Walker Lake! I was down on Twenty Mile Beach in the cargo trailer. I was like ‘how the f did that a-liner get up there?’ because I didn’t see a road. I thought it may be you when I saw the Jeep but I didn’t fan-girl about it till now. Small world... Great video btw!
Hello
Dakota loves you so much. You can tell by the way she looks at you. You are so lucky to be out there free going where you want with man's best friend. Safe travels to you and Dakota!
LP will always produce condensation! Use an alcohol stove instead.
I am loving this cute Lil camper ...
Awesome vid! Can't decide if I want to go with a hard sided pop-up like the a-liner or a small teardrop/travel trailer.
a liner company has another camper called the ascape. mix between a teardrop and the a-liner.
New subscriber watching from Hawaii my family and I love camping 🤙🏽
You can stand up and put your pants on in an A-liner where as you have to do that horizontally in most teardrops. Great video!
Joke for you.
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death.
I discovered Google maps doesn't work. 🤣
Cool video.
Thanks!
Hope you went on to Tahoe, most beautiful place ever!
I don't think Covid is going away, but just be safe out there
Love how you keep it real. Like how this is the stuff we could experience where you are and maybe things we can avoid or things we need to experience. So helpful. Hey, lets get experimental with leftovers. LOL
I've been fantasizing a lot about living like this. Just travelling in my RV or with a Camper Trailer, with a dog, and setting up camp in an isolated area with no people around and just chill. I don't have a family of my own and I don't think I'll ever get married so this kind of lifestyle is very tempting. Gotta save a lot of money, though.
Your dog looks like he’s thinking: “ why did we leave our safe, warm house for this?” 😂😂😂
😂😂
If you've got some of those poop and scoop bags for dogs, keep a roll in ur pocket for putting over your hands for gas pumps and store door handles, then properly dispose of them after each use, great if you don't have gloves and extremely cheap and safe for this crazy time in our lives, stay safe brother!
They make disposable rubber gloves which are cheaper than doggie doo bags lol Why use bags when you can buy gloves for just as cheap?
When I invest in $75k in gear, I will have a shower and shitter, somehow. When I have money, I don’t have time and when I have time I don’t have money. Funny how that works.
It's a pay to win game obviously
I feel you on that!!!
A sad truth
How come Royals don't carry money around? They despise them.
In the woods, money 💰 don't grow on threes, you right.
That's a happy dog. Lots of adventures equals a happy dog.
That is so funny. My family and I were the one's in the Tacoma you filmed driving by. We saw your Aliner which made me search them on UA-cam. Small World indeed. Your vids are super cool. You gave away a super secret fishing hole though LOL!
I think this is what I need
I really can't wait for all of this pandemic crap to be over with so I can take my wife and pup on an epic adventure! Keep those videos coming, and stay safe out there!
alexa ? can you show me what a "super spreader" looks like....
Night-Shift Gaming well I hope you don’t lose any loved ones and friends with this pandemic crap. Have fun with that one you idiot😡
Now IS the time to take your wife out for an adventure,if you are lucky enough to own a camper!! Drive far away from any civilization,where there are no viruses and stay there until this crazynes is over! My neighbors did that" bye bye" they said and drove off with their camper,they'd rather spend their quarantine in a camper where they can go out whenever they want to,without neighbors,than sit in their house day in and day out. I wish I'd have a camper(and a drivers license..)
Apparently you all missed the part when I said I really cant wait for all of this to be over so I can... which means I'm not going, until it's over. I work in healthcare, so I am WELL aware of the dangers, thank you. SMH, people need to learn how to read. Who is the idiot now? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@MasonsCustomPC Not me!!! I encouraged you to go NOW!!!
That is super owlsome. Setting up camp near the main highway just in case you need to get towed out. With the traffic somebody is always near and passing close enough if you need assistance. Owlsome. Thanks for sharing!
You are living the dream, my friend! I would love to just pick up and adventure in nature!
I used to live in something like this and it saved me so much money but had to make a change good work man 😊
There's nothing between Reno and Nevada...lol...my favorite line...😂
Thanks for sharing these videos. Stay safe and have fun exploring.
They have wood burning stoves for small trailers you can buy and install. Many seen on UTube. Be sure to get a carbon monoxide detector.
I have camped with my family in Spring and wake up to snow.We didn't pay no mind to the weather we enjoyed camping
I certainly would love to have a set up like yours!
Way to go!!
Hey Phil ... thanks again for your video of the Nevada dessert. You guys have some pretty terrific public lands. We don't have as must open land in Ontario Canada. Just love your girl Coda. She is a terrific companion. I think your videos are more important now that we are all self isolating at home, so an extra thanks to you. mary
Yeah cool but when will tenacious d be touring again??
HORROR FREAK LONDON I was thinking tha same 😂
Thanks for sharing and Your dog is so cute! 😊
Phil, Everytime you high five the camera, I headbutt my iPad, cuz THATS HOW I HIGH FIVE!!🙃 And besides I HATE my iPad!!
I just found your video and heard you say in the beginning something about your quarantine spot. I had to check the date to see when this was filmed bc I couldn’t believe we’re still in quarantine. This started when it was snowing and now it’s almost 100 degrees where I live. It’s unbelievable we’ve been in this situation for multiple seasons now.
"Cota loves being on camera", or not. LOL
Hi ,from well I live in Arizona I enjoyed your channel cute doggy ,love exploring the desert so cool. Looks like a blast I'm close to Laughlin but in Arizona. Thank you and happy safe trails on this beautiful planet 🤗❤️🤪🙏🙏
And we're out here dealing with a bug named after a cheap beer..
Says the guy drinkin mickeys😆😆🤭
@@deesnutz5576 because of my outfit? Lol
Cheap in quality not in price.
you could put stuff in the truck bed, without it getting wet or full of snow, if you would cover it up. It would not cost much and would also keep your bike from rusting etc.
You got me Phil, now I got to wait and see if you got that epic spot on the mountain lol 😆
How could anyone hate on this lifestyle?
Interesting trailer. Does the top leak cold air when the wind blows?
