Winter Van Life in Rocky Mountains leads to Hospital (-3F)

- Driving through a snow storm into the Rockies. Negative 3F (-19 Celsius) and snow covered roads made for an interesting drive over the mountain pass at 13,000ft up. What was supposed to be a snowboarding trip turns into a trip to the hospital. I love winter van life, the mountains covered in snow, the crispness of the air.. But sadly it didn't work out how we hoped...

Thank you for all the support you show here on TH-cam! We have been struggling with getting videos uploaded, so I had to drop the quality on this one sadly.. But hopefully we will get that sorted...
More content coming soon, we are preparing for some massive travels. Which will make for great content, through all sorts of landscapes! What video of ours was your favorite?
Eat fermented food to promote digestion.....hydrate more. And stretch every muscle and ligament in your body with dynamic stretches everyday.
@@sasquatchrosefartsI will try my best!! Thank you for the care!
Probably not your regular follower. Older female. Really enjoy your videos. Cassie is just perfect. Thanks
Haha ironically this is the most liked comment! I love having a diverse viewer base!
Thank you!!
It's OK, Hun. He's used to this Grandma here. 😂
I'm with you Martha!🌻🌻🌻
Me too! I have wondered if I’m the only grow ass woman enjoying watching these youngsters videos! I love watching this young man and his sweet puppy!
Green salad with lemon juice based dressing in the mornings, magnesium food and generally a large variety of healthy foods regularly will help. I almost died of pancreatic stuff etc and fixed myself real quick with food. Get healthy, stay healthy, eat life.
I'm really glad you know how to listen to your body. You are taking great care of yourself and Cassie!
Love 💗 your puppy 🐶 please put a dog jacket on your fur baby when you go outside in the snow ❄️
Hope you get better soon.
❤❤❤❤❤❤Dude? You are looking more relaxed on camera. I believe your channel will grow once you get back to regular posts.😊
Thank you Annette!! Always glad to see you in the comments!! Working on the next video now, trying to stay consistent with near weekly uploads!
Just subscribed yesterday and first video I saw was Cassie’s story!! Happy to hear that you are ok!! Prob tension & anxiety of driving (I get white knuckles too-in Atlanta traffic when I have to go there) and the cold prob didn’t help the numbness in hands. UGH!! As prob a bit older than your mom, you need better shoes & wear your coat at 5 degrees!!! I have older kids/young adults really-33, 29 & 27 years and grandson Damari-8 yrs old. You need one of those GPS-satellite gizmos when out by yourself!!! Thanks for saving Cassie❤
Dan I'm sure you know this but you're your own worst critic. Your video quality is still awesome even if you don't think so. You have beautiful shots and gorgeous transitions. Great content doesn't hurt. I'm glad to see you and Cassie again and I'm thrilled you went somewhere warmer.
Thank you sheetz!! Idk if it’s perfectionism or adhd or what but I have yet to make a video I’m truly happy with 😂🤣 so I appreciate these comments a ton! Thanks for always watching and commenting!
I agree. His videos are
so good.
Glad you're ok! 🙏 Cassie is the best co-pilot! 🐾💕
Feel better. Cassie needs some boots.
Thank you!! Hahaha she would be hilarious in boots too!
Cassie is a very lucky girl! The one female who will never break your heart. Watch out for blocking that tailpipe exhaust into the snow behind you. Love your site. Good information. very creative and fun to watch!
I just heard of that syndrome recently because my cousin has it. She's moving to a warmer climate. I'm sorry it freaks you out. I nerve issues in my hand and shoulder go numb and it freaks me right out. You did the right thing going to the hospital just to check and make sure it wasn't something else. Best wishes!!!!
Raynauds annoys me because of the amount of time I want to spend fly fishing with my hands in cold water this summer, we will see how it does! I hope your nerve issues lighten, it’s a scary one no doubt
It's good to see your doing good. Looks like summer is just starting in Seattle. Be safe have fun bud :)
I'm praying you are well. I suffer from similar symptoms all caused by vascular migraines. It's definitely scary. You might want to see a neurologist to play it safe. Please get your ABS system repaired. That's yours and Cassies home ... it needs to be safe. Looking forward to your next adventure.
Interesting, I had missed like a month of school my senior year from reoccurring migraines, I will look into that a bit, thank you for the info nd I hope your conditions are alright! ABS is on the list of things hahaha
Loving the long hair. So handsome. Thankyou to you and Cassie for your very entertaining uplifting videos. Safe travels my friend 🙏😊❤️🚙
So glad Cassy is back and posting....you are cute too Dan! Hope you are feeling better now. You are way too young to not be feeling great dude. Could be a pinched nerve, have you tried a good Chiropractor for the numb and tingling hands? Looking forward to y'all's next post. Hugs for you and Cassy!
Ahh.. Arizona?
That would be nice. Get better. ❤
Good guess!! But nope, I’ve spent the last couple winters there though!
I’m guessing Arizona, not to close, not to far. You look like you could use a little sun Dan, always great for the spirits too☀️
Close!! No AZ this year though, and always in need of some sunshine!
Hey Dan and cassie,hope your on the mend,can't wait to hear the story of you finding cassie
Thank you!!! Hoping to get the video out soon!
Made me sick, that road, and I am sitting on the couch.
Missed you and Casey glad to see you
Thank you for watching and commenting Mary!!
Those roads made me so nervous, we remember how sketchy that pass is!!! Stay safe and warm
Definitely one of the few times roads that can really make me nervous!!
Haven't seen ya in awhile! So glad to have caught this video dan! Hope you and cassie Are doing well! God bless! ❤
Thank you!! Working on the next video now, we are doing much better once getting out of the cold!!
Stunning views. So sorry you're going through the nerve issues. Hope you're feeling better quickly. Love seeing your and Cassie's Videos. And you definitely head somewhere warmer 😊
Thank you!! We definitely chased the warmth!!
You havent put any videos out for a while, hope your shoulder get well.
Glad you are feeling better Dan
Thank you Laura!!
That drive is definitely nerve racking I would say and I live and drive in Wisconsin.
I grew up in Iowa, so have lots of snow experience but this pass is a nerve wracking one😅😅
California
Gald you and Casey are Back! 😂
Lived in Colorado almost my entire life. Gone up and down Berthoud pass for several decades….you couldn’t pay me to go down that pass during a snowy, ivy storm. Not fun.
So sorry you couldn't go skiing. Probably a good thing you didn't. Tell Miss Cassie I missed her sweet face. Safe travels my friend.
I hope you are ok. You are 100% right getting yourself checked out. What a trip!!! Not surprised your nerves shot to pieces. Stay safe Dan and Cassie. X ❤
We’ve been doing pretty good since!! Thank you!! Glad to see you in the comments still!
I know you told us how you found Cassie but I forget where. So I don’t know exactly where you are going. Be safe. I wish you good health.
I was wondering if anyone would remember! Thank you Mary!!
Hey, just know that we here in Atlanta Ga are PRAYING for Uuuuuuuu❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Thank you!! I’ll make it south one day
well shoot dang ! , good to be here .. im a dog guy , but took the puppy back to its breeder after i hit the road 4 yrs. ago .. As an avid cycler im still on the fence , bout getting another one. I've had a dog 50 yrs. of my life... look forward to seeing ur adventures ✌
Going down hill, going to assume you had your engine in a manual lower gear instead of just drive. If not, you should. Save your brakes. Might have been what smelled hot.
Beautiful video Dan . I'm guessing y'all are headed to Arizona. I'm also dealing with a pinched nerve in my neck. Makes bartending really fun..lol🎉❤
Thank you!! Shoot do you have similar symptoms or any solutions
Has it every video you’ve ever made taken in that parking lot the one with the Bears where there’s a Honda that’s crashed when you go down to town and walk around Winter Park
I ADORE YOU , 🤍🤍🎀🎀✨️✨️
Hahaha thank you!
Glad your back. Poor Cassie looked so nervous! A chiropractor could help you with your back.
She was definitely as anxious as I was, I have been considering going to a chiro for the neck issues.. maybe I will soon, Cali chiros are pricey 😂
Hi Dan I watched till the end from my kitchen in the UK thanks for the video
Thank you!!!
Missed you and Cassie so b
Glad you uploaded another video sorry you weren't feeling good Dan hope you feel better i too suffer from nerve issues so i know all too well how unwell that can make you feel. Praying you feel better stay safe out there and God bless you and Cassie thankyou for another great video😊❤
Thank you!! Sorry you have nerve issues too, definitely a strange/scary sensation.. thanks for watching and commenting, we’re working on the next video now!
I have no idea but im going to say new mexico!
I’ve never been!!! Maybe next winter!
Watching you drive through the pass makes me glad I am no longer driving in that crap. 😂. Hope your health is okay.
Hahah since being out of it, I’m already missing the mountains😭
I live in Florida - haha and sorry! I am guessing Florida because it is pretty warm but maybe Arizona since it is closer. You and Cassie stay safe.
Hahahaha I think possibly next winter I will get down to Florida!! Arizona is a good guess but not this year!
Where are you heading next? Hope you feel better.
I really like the way you live in your van!! You seem relaxed and happy!!
Thank you! 😊
Hope you're feeling better soon Dan!
Thank you!! We’re doing mostly better now!
Hope your feeling better. I would guess Arizona but where ever you go. Stay safe.
Thank you!! Good guess but no Arizona this winter!
Awesome video. I hope you're feeling better. 🙏🙏🙏🤗🤗❤️
Great but tense video! I despise bad roads. Are you heading to New Mexico?
Maybe Arizona. Glad you & Cassie are back!
Thank you!! There’s a bunch of AZ guesses hahah maybe it’s a sign I should go there
😊
Hope you are feeling better. Really like your videos 🤙
Thanks Mattias!! Feeling better now and working on the next video!
❤❤❤❤ Are you going to like Arizona? I don't know.
Going to Cali God Bless you and Cassie

Hey 👋 Dan & Gorgeous Cassie ,your decision to turn around and go back definitely the better one,well for the nerve pain , I cant believe your nerve pain is same as mine ,the way you explained how it feels OMG .Try explaining to a Dr how it feels they dont know unless they have had it,I have it in my feet I was put on low antidepressant that suppose to stop it pain,it didn't agree with me so back to square 1😏🙉Mine was due to steroid injection, but its hard to explain that sharp horrible feeling 😢, anywho great to see you an Cassie please Take care Stay Safe Stay Alert ⚠️ be careful and mostly Be happy .Sending You an Cassie special Blessings Blessings from Me V Australia 🇦🇺 GODBLESS
Arizona

Another guess towards AZ!! Thank you Kat!
Somewhere warmer. Maybe Texas?
Good choice getting checked out Glad you still got visiting time with your friend. i believe things happen for a reason Where are you heading? To Cassie's hometown :)

Nice shirts but the Play Outside ones should incorporate your logo (I/m/o) 😊
That is alot of snow.
You are brave to weather those conditions. Nice video.
You're going to Alabama, NEXT . . 82* right now at 4 PM on 4-16-24.

NewMexico ? Maybe
California?
Dan have you tried going vegetarian for a week or two to see if you have an allergy to something your eating
Oh gosh Dan I had my share of snow driving a truck been to Cali on 70 across Denver to Cali yeah it was pretty in that I think it was Vail all light up before Christmas all white lights and a Big Christmas tree light up, I know it was a ski resort town that was light up.
Like the longer hair Dan
Utah
That is scary
You're headed to Arizona?
You followed that Subaru to Florida? LOL
Hahahaha no they had Florida plates!

Notta, I run the KO2s, had them on my Tacoma and loved them
Go to a neurologist and rule out ms
I can't believe what you've done is just too good! Loved your video very much! Would love to do a collaboration with you, can you give me your email? I would be super happy!
I’d love to!! DansGamingVan@gmail.com is the best way to reach me or DansGamingVan on Instagram!
Being an Australian I have no idea where you going? 😊
Good videography...I've been on roads like before. A nail biting experience. I'm glad your health episode was fleeting. Take good care. 🇨🇦
Thank you!!! 🎥 I usually don’t mind driving in snow, but this paticular pass is a sketchy one!! Thank you!
