If you’ve ever RVed in the Pacific Northwest, you know how the cold can sneak in during late-season hookups, foggy morning coffee walks, or packing up camp after sunset. In this episode of RV Out West, we dive into winter RV camping, sharing practical tips to stay warm, extend your camping season, and truly enjoy your time on the road.

We explore the perks of winter RVing from fewer crowds, snow-covered scenery, and peaceful campgrounds to what you should consider before venturing out. I talk about propane management, condensation control, extra layers, and planning for mountain passes in icy conditions. I also share my personal experiences towing over the Cascade Mountains in winter, including preparation, traction strategies, and how to stay safe and confident in challenging weather.

As part of this episode, I review a piece of gear that has been a game-changer this season: the Ororo Sure Warm 7-Zone Heated Vest, paired with their Merino Wool Hoodie. I share real-world testing in late fall camping, snowboarding trips, and even extreme cold conditions in Kansas City.

Winter RVing isn’t just about enduring the cold—it’s about experiencing the road in a slower, quieter, and more magical way. From serene state parks to snow-dusted mountains, this episode will inspire you to rethink your RV season and enjoy the beauty of winter adventures in the Pacific Northwest.
