Subzero Car Camping | Essential Gear and Diesel Heater Test at -26°F

Описание: Join me as I venture 20 miles north of Steamboat Springs to test my diesel heater setup in extreme cold conditions. With nighttime temperatures dropping to -26°F, this experience pushed my gear and preparation to the limits.

In this video, I cover:
Gear Overview:
Insulation techniques and materials used to retain heat.
Cold-weather sleeping setup, including sleeping bags and thermal liners.
Tips and Tricks for Cold-Weather Car Camping:
Best practices for maintaining diesel heater efficiency in extreme cold.
Layering techniques to stay warm and dry throughout the night.

Originally, this spot was intended as the launch point for a backcountry camping and split-board expedition. However, due to the severe cold, I decided to postpone the trip for a warmer weather window. This decision underscores the importance of flexibility and safety when planning winter adventures.
