Cold Weather Truck Camping

  • This week I stayed at the Maplewood State Park near Pelican Rapids Minnestoa. I stayed overnight in the truck camper and the park was empty. The weather forecast was calling for warmer temperatures all week, but Mother Nature had different plans. It was cold, windy and the snow started falling around 2am Sunday night. I tried my hand at making ribs in the Dutch oven. They turned out great, however I had to sacrifice half the rack to the campfire gods. I hiked through the woods looking for a prime location to put a camera to observe the northern lights but wasn't able to get a clear shot of the horizon. I jumped on the bike to check further away but came up empty handed. It was all good though, the snow would have made the lights impossible to see. The weather channel is calling for snowstorms and blizzard conditions this week. Next week's video might be interesting. Thanks for coming along on this week's adventure. I'll see ya down the road.

So far the first round went south. We only got a dusting last night and today. The winds have been crazy though. At about 7 tonight, the snow will start.

    I was so disappointed when the ribs fell into the fire, I let out a loud 'Oh no!' I had to explain that I was watching a camping video and nothing was wrong. Maplewood is pretty nice park and it can get crowded on the weekends in summer. But the terrain is unlike anything else for miles around. Lots of good hiking there.
    Hope the roads were good on the way home for you. I was up in Devils Lake on Monday and they closed the interstate in the early evening, so my crew had to fight through county and state roads to get home and the roads had quite a bit of drifting.

    • @KennyOfAllTrades

We'll have to continue to live vicariously through your beautiful videos as we've had unexpected health news and will not be able to get out there in a TC, so will be selling our '15 RAM 5500 Laramie 4x4 dually crew cab. Thankfully we hadn't bought a TC yet, so one less worry. Luckily, we've had a 5th wheel a few years back, so we know we would've loved truck camping, the good and bad. BTW, this truck would be great for a 5th wheel, too, it'll carry anything you put onto it, if there's anyone interested.

    Just watched your video the day after your excursion. Loved it. Don't know if I'll ever be able to do anything like that. Cold's not the problem (40 years as a mail carrier, just retired recently) but other concerns, like both hips replaced left shoulder reverse replacement and right shoulder rotor cuff surgery tend to limit my mobility. Still try to get on my Triumph Thunderbird as much as possible but Ohio has weather concerns too.
