    Hey Ryan, you need to add diesel anti-gel additive to your diesel heater reservoir to avoid fuel freezing. Common practice for big rig truckers operating in cold WX environments. Great video as always!

      and he should turn to maximum the diesel heater at the beginning to burn the sooth and prevent build up, long term operating only on medium increasing the chance to failure.

    You should insulate all your water lines and tape them up thoroughly to prevent a multitude of these elemental issues. I’ve been a plumber for over 25 years coast to coast. Keep it up 👍 ❤

    One of my coolest memories from my time in the US Navy was when my ship went across the Atlantic in the late 90's, and I got to see the Hale-Bopp comet against the arm of the Milky Way on an absolutely clear and moonless night. So cool to see your pictures!

    It's crazy. Your cMera exposes so many stars that you can't see with the naked eye.

And always love getting out and camping where there's no light pollution. Appreciate the video brother!

    When you have the chance , buy one of the largest pair of binoculars. Then use the binoculars on occasion esp. during clear nights. Binoculars will enhance the views of many areas which you are visiting. During a clear night, aim the binoculars at the moon as well as the planets. You will find out why using the Binoculars are useful on your trips.

    With your diesel heater fuel tank in your engine bay you might consider running your engine until it heats up before you go to bed when you anticipate sub freezing temperatures to try and stave off fuel gelling, as well as getting some anti gelling additive. Sweet campsite brother, was there last year and was blown away at sunset and sunrise. 🤙🏽

The western part of the U.S. is so cool and beautiful. Now that you have so much experience in your van you should do a re-build series on your channel...change out everything you would have done in the beginning if you knew better.

    Are you near Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument? I think you must be.
    If you ever get up to Donner Pass at night, there are so many stars that you can't see the stars. It's like looking at sand on a beach. Diamond dust, sugar crystals. How the ancients ever sorted out constellations blows my mind.
