New videos every Thursday! This week it got down to -35 Degrees Celcius (-31 F), so of course, I had to go out and see if I could do stealth camping in a rented U-Haul van. Things went as smoothly as could be expected for a van with no insulation in it. I did bring my Big Buddy propane heater to take the edge off, but it was still quite an adventure.

For anyone wanting to do something like this it would be wise to bite the bullet and invest in a flexible sleeping bag system that can allow you survive in such cold temperatures. The guy in the first video may have done well to layer the felt (wool) moving blankets on top on his sleeping bag and shut the propane heater off.
