My first time camping in a snow storm. Setting up camp in a windy blizzard is harder than it looks. Taking a break from van life and living in my truck camper to explore the wild winter with a tent was definitely an adventure in my book. It really reminds me how helpless we can be against mother nature if something goes wrong.

I will continue to work on making better and more interactive camping, adventure videos. It was pretty difficult to film while trying to setup camp since it was my first time snow camping and I was getting really cold!
I greatly appreciate you watching, xoxo, Hannah Straight #Camping
Hello my friend. Welcome to my winter wonderland.
As you can see there's basically a whiteout behind me.
There's a huge mountain range back there but you can't see it because there's so
much snow coming down. There's a storm coming in. It's not
super windy right now but it was earlier. I got a bunch of new camping gear. I
wanted to try it out so we're gonna trek up into the mountains through this
arctic tunderland. Hopefully I don't freeze to death. I got a
zero degree sleeping bag, a brand new tent. I want to bring you
along on this adventure so let's get going.
I think this looks like a good spot to set up camp.
Got some mossy trees. The wind has died down.
There's a low fog. Sun was peeking out earlier but
I'm gonna get started.
Gotta get all the jiggins out so it's nice and smooth. I'm gonna ditch.
It's a five-star hotel right here. I'm gonna let my floor freeze over and get
nice and hard because I don't want the Hanna Hotel to
be super lumpy. In the meantime I'm gonna make myself a
nice hot cup of superfood mushroom coffee. If you didn't
check out my last video I have a pure earth mushroom coffee. It's got seven
superfood mushrooms and instant coffee. It's perfect for situations like this.
It's definitely delicious and if you want to support my channel check out the
link below so you can learn more about it. I'm gonna use this nifty little stove
right here. This thing is great. It's my new favorite tool.
You can boil water in just a couple minutes. It has a wind cover so in windy
situations like this you don't have to worry about your flame going out.
It's great for boiling water, for making coffee and tea, and for making meals when
you're outside in the woods.
First part done. Holy moly that was a lot harder than I expected.
This is the first time I've ever put a tent together in the snow.
Disclaimer it's not as easy as one two three.
And my camera battery died right in the middle of it but
it's successfully assembled and I can't wait to get inside
away from the wind because it is really chilly out here.
So now we're going to check out the inside and build out the inside of
my Hanna hotel.
So this is the inside of my little hotel that I made.
Hotel Hanna. It's nice and cozy. It's nice and toasty in here. I got my
zero degree sleeping bag. Do you approve? How do you like it? I'm
gonna make some food later. Some beef stroganoff.
It's crazy that this tent actually blocks the wind like super well.
I was really cold out there but once you get inside it blocks the wind
excellent. Like I don't have any wind at all right now
and it makes a huge difference in temperature so I'm a lot warmer in here.
I definitely would recommend at least a zero degree sleeping bag. I know there's
a lot out there. There are like 32 15s but if you're gonna be out in the snow
and you're gonna be in a snowstorm I would 100% recommend at least a zero
degree. It's definitely worth the money. In
honesty I thought I was gonna turn into an ice pop so I had to rip this tent up
so I wasn't gonna turn into a piece of ice in the snow
but it's super cool to be inside this little
four season tent when there's snow falling on you
and there's just peace and quiet and you get to feel like a mummy in this
sleeping bag. Watch.
I look a little disheveled right now. I apologize.
Okay show's over. Time to go to sleep. If I don't turn into a popsicle you
better make sure you subscribe so you don't miss my next adventure.
I am starting to be able to feel my toes again.
