I had a 7.3 Power stroke and I remember when the prices flipped. When the EPA demanded ultra low Sulfur diesel it increased refining costs. Then the DEF requirements changed the costs again. Also there is higher road use taxes because of OTR drivers using diesel. Stay safe in the snow country, we love your adventures!
My wife and I hit Leavenworth every summer. We have fallen in love with this amazing jewel of the Northern Washington mountains. The people are awesome, food is amazing, beer is great, and the HILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF MUSIC. Cheers, Dr. Hannah!
That looks like so much fun. Snowboarding in the back country and essentially getting stranded due to a snowstorm in your home. Come on thats just amazing.
Hey doc. Stevens Pass is my home ski hill. Glad you made it up here to the great Pacific Northwest. Would have loved to ski some runs with you! Btw, you can thank our emperor, er governor, Jay Inslee for our outrageous fuel cost!
Hey Doc, what a combination of scenes! Form deep snow and your usual amazing snowboarding videos to the beach to a German village, good food - maybe a little too much - and a rollercoaster to boot! I have said it many times, you find the most amazing places! Have Fun Doc! 💜
No matter were you go; the snowy mountains or the sunny beaches, you always have a great time. WOW 80' sheesh???, great lessons learned, always play it safe and go in pairs. Thank you for bringing us along Dr. Straight, stay safe!!
The fuel costs SO much in Washington because it is a very blue state. Most of the higher cost is due to insanely high taxes on that fuel. In fact, Washington has just about the most expensive fuel in the US…all while being refined at locations less than an hour from where you were buying it…🤔
Welcome to Stevens Pass! The only far north regularly traveled pass through the PNW before they built I-90 and created Snowqualmie Pass. Some great snow pack out there this year.
I lived 40 miles away from the pass. The snow slips there...avalanches every year. It's a good thing you're in shape. I miss that place. Moved back to Arizona in early October. Be well and stay safe.
Hallo Hannah ! :) Schönes Video! Ich wünsche Dir viel Spaß beim Skisport und bitte darum das Du Dir ein Medipack mit nimmst , sowie immer bedenkst das es Gründe gibt , warum man nicht alleine abseits der Pisten fahren sollte! Es gibt auch hungrige Bären und bei solchen Bedingungen können auch Lawinen auftreten und Rettungshubschrauber schlecht fliegen !:) 😘💋
stranded in a Spr/w-inter wonderland... on a tropical island, or a frozen rinky-dink roller-coaster... or touring a fun faux German village... as long as Doc Hannah is going there, I'd be very content pulling up alongside her... another beautiful adventure, Doc !! Love ya !!
Great video as usual. Love that you share your perspectives on how snow creates a pocket under the branches waiting quietly for an unexpected boarder to pass 😅
Welcome to the PNW, Stevens pass is a fantastic place for skying then go to Leavenworth for some good food and beer… I love my PNW, welcome to my neighborhood HANNAH !
Yikes!! Wowzers Hannah!!😱 80’ cliff even!!🫣 Getting stuck in a tree well just sucks!! Super glad that you weren’t boarding alone! Smart!!🙏🏽 Thanks again for your awesome adventures! I’m sure many of us followers live vicariously through your videos!!🤙🏽🏂❄️🌞👙🌴
Diesel fuel is made using a hydrocarbon mixture that is a byproduct of the distillation of crude oil. It is denser than gas. A byproduct sounds like it should be cheaper. Stay warm Doc🤗🤗
Steven’s Pass is a no joke ski area. Glad it went ok. Tree wells and avalanche are the main concern there besides your obvious cliffs. I am definitely a Colorado winter activity person. Love seeing you getting out there in the powder. You’re very smart to not go alone. Be safe and keep exploring
Major props for continuing snowboarding after that Tree Well debacle. 👍 You were really wedged in there. Not to mention the 80' cliff you avoided! I'm sure you were glad to get down to the bottom of the run and had an adult beverage in the Sprinter Van afterwards...lol... maybe 2!
Woo that’s a lotta snow. I actually thought of you when I heard about the avalanche at the ski park a couple weeks back. I grew up in Iowa and living now in Texas I miss the snow. They shut everything down if it snows half an inch here. 😂 Stay frosty (but not frozen) Hannah.
Looks like that town did what Helen, GA did, and transformed into a tourist town. Looked like fun. Glad you have the skills to handle the closed Pass. Keep up the fun adventures!
Hello Hannah its Jeaux. I am envious of all the fun you are having in that winter wonderland. You looked skilled on the snowboard as well. 🏂🏼🏂🏼🏂🏼that looks like a lot of fun. I have never tried it. We don't get much snow in New Orleans LOL, Its 71 degrees today. You appear equally at home in the snowy mountains or on a tropical beach. That's why you are the Unicorn! 🦄🦄🦄
that was some fun cold weather shredding- looks like you had a good time and it wasn't very crowded. Those tree wells are no joke and a crash always results in indignity!!
Happy Friday, Hannah. Your sense of adventure gets you into interesting situations. I'm sure if you were on a beach, you'd be dreaming of snow . The view from the chairlift while beautiful definitely felt a little unnerving . That roller coaster looked like it was a hoot .Be careful with snow build up around the van and stay safe out on the hill ❤
Awesome video as always Doc! Glad you didn’t try the 80 foot drop! I’ve been thinking about going on some winter trips when I get my camper, but this video makes me think twice about that, haha! Definitely want to visit that area, but maybe in warmer times! Glad the van worked well in the snow storm too. Take care, have fun, and be safe!!
Never too late to do boat life! I was stuck on I80 near Donner Pass/Tahoe a few years back due to snow slides on the way to a biathlon race. Made it to a motel that was sold out and the parking lot was full of stranded travelers. Slept in my Bronco II overnite. Would run the engine with the heater on full blast for 15 minutes and then shut it off and sleep until the cold woke me up. Repeat, repeat. It was 10 degrees out. The storm had dropped 17 ft of snow over a 2 day period. Race was cancelled. 8 hr drive for the adventure of sleeping in my truck. Stay Warm !
Well, you're stuck in the snow at Stevens Pass and I'm stuck at home in need of a new computer hard drive. I'd say what you've got is more exciting. I have to go shopping for computer stuff this week. Stay SAFE and protected, Hannah!! Also, that looked STEEP!! Be CAREFUL out there, Doc!! And, that's a BIG dinner!!
Diesel is a component of oil that is made when gasoline is extracted, so it is generally made in proportion to gasoline. Thus, diesel cost is very sensitive to demand, since in general they can't up production (since it's tied to gas production). Heating fuel that people use to heat homes is actually diesel gas, so demand always spikes in winter time, and prices spike as well. (Tip, if you are running short in heating fuel for your home, and don't want to buy the 100 gallon minimum from suppliers, you can just get 5 gallons of diesel from a gas station, it's the same thing.)
I'm not a fan of cold weather and snow, but with your smile Dr. Hannah, the snow looks warmer : SAY WHAT???? you didn't cook up a pizza in this snowstorm, I was waiting for the pizza, LOL.
Great adventure Hannah…I got caught in a tree well once and dropped about 20 feet backwards …. Took me a half hour to dig out…. Oh! You look beautiful wherever you are adventuring….. in the snow or on a deserted beach somewhere….. happy day Hannah…. State well and safe… see you on your next adventure…. Always Gary…..
You sure get yourself into some interesting predicaments you love the rain and the snow in the sunshine and I just love to see all the different swimsuits that you wear. I just wonder how many you do have
I went over Steven's Pass 3 days in a row during that same week. It was treacherous & closed several times. Also your visit to the roller coaster in Leavenworth was awesome!. I live 30 minutes from there & still haven't ridden it. Great video 👍
😂I bet you have fun going back to get your camera sometimes. People forget there are parts of Washington State that gets a good bit of wet snow, it builds up fast. Stay warm Hannah.
Cracks me up I almost bought one till I tried to lift the front end , and the riding position back in the day was hilarious all stooped over back killer , engine was a bad mofo as we're most all the triples and that massive 136 x1 1/2 track !!! Good ole days rode my 530 ext for 20,000 miles all stooped over like that !!
Good old US Route 2 the second oldest highway that is still in it's original configuration from east to west with a short section that goes in to Canada as was the plan in 1926. A lot of beautiful country. If you get stuck in some spot you just have to slow down and enjoy it.
I've been dealing with the diesel issue too...diesel costs less to refine and has been cheaper until the powers that be decided to take advantage of us....on another note, anywhere you are is warm, comfortable and inviting regardless of the conditions! Thanks for sharing! God bless!❤❤❤❤
Demand is much higher for diesel relative to the supply, so the price is naturally higher. It’s not the government or “big oil” taking advantage of you.
Great video. Hard to believe we have no snow in Toronto, Canada. I actually miss the lack of snow. I hear your story about diesel prices, it's insane. Yes diesel was cheaper, shortly after buying a diesel car prices reversed and the price keeps going higher. One theory is more people using diesel and the environmentalist want to eliminate diesel cause it pollutes less.
Hey Doc,
Excellent video….please be safe❤
Rain or shine …. Dr Hannah always puts a smile on my face….
I had a 7.3 Power stroke and I remember when the prices flipped. When the EPA demanded ultra low Sulfur diesel it increased refining costs. Then the DEF requirements changed the costs again. Also there is higher road use taxes because of OTR drivers using diesel. Stay safe in the snow country, we love your adventures!
Hannah, you have the best attitude of anyone!
My wife and I hit Leavenworth every summer. We have fallen in love with this amazing jewel of the Northern Washington mountains. The people are awesome, food is amazing, beer is great, and the HILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF MUSIC. Cheers, Dr. Hannah!
Only you could find a working roller coaster in a blizzard. Great work finding that particular adventure!
That looks like so much fun. Snowboarding in the back country and essentially getting stranded due to a snowstorm in your home. Come on thats just amazing.
I love Leavenworth! Now you are getting closer to me in Coeur d' alene, Idaho
Hanna, your voice overs for your vids are just awesome and easy on the ears. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe from South Africa Africa.
Hey doc. Stevens Pass is my home ski hill. Glad you made it up here to the great Pacific Northwest. Would have loved to ski some runs with you! Btw, you can thank our emperor, er governor, Jay Inslee for our outrageous fuel cost!

Hannah. Your adventures never fail to amaze me. Even in a disaster you have a way to smile and have fun.
That snippet of you on the beach was the perfect way to warm up after watching you crash the slopes on your snowboard.
I love your life decisions! Thanks for taking us on your journey!!
No matter were you go; the snowy mountains or the sunny beaches, you always have a great time. WOW 80' sheesh???, great lessons learned, always play it safe and go in pairs. Thank you for bringing us along Dr. Straight, stay safe!!

Same here in Oregon
Jay Inslee is a huge climate change guy and we pay the price for this idiot to be in the governors mansion.
I always enjoy your outlook on everything keep on smiling

As in all extreme adventurers, have a buddy. Enjoy your time up in the mountains and thank you for sharing your experiences.
Looks like a GREAT ski destination, snow looked awesome, be careful out there, safe travels.
Scott!! thank you=)
Wow if i ever want to know where there's the most snow look for Hannah 😮 love to see snowboarding 👍
Been to Leavenworth several times, loved the sleigh ride, horse-drawn of course, great times.
Thanks for another super interesting episode.
I’m always amazed by the places you show us, and the things you get up to.
Rock On!
Roller coaster looked fun! Dr. Hannah you looked beautiful on that island ❤ ty for the videos.

Many people don’t know about these wells by the trees. Great job teaching . Deadly

Dr Hannah, I always love watching your winter adventures. I have learned so much from you. I only wish I could snowboard as good you.
The snow setting is awesome! Had to watch the video twice.
Wow! Some scary snowboard moments! And then roller coaster and bratwurst? Such a fine balance between scary and fun! Nice job Hannah!
Great video as usual. Love that you share your perspectives on how snow creates a pocket under the branches waiting quietly for an unexpected boarder to pass 😅
youre living the dream, my friend
Welcome to the PNW, Stevens pass is a fantastic place for skying then go to Leavenworth for some good food and beer… I love my PNW, welcome to my neighborhood HANNAH !
Hi Hannah! Taff ride! Nice to see a full winter landscape! Take care! Wolfgang 🤗⛄🤩
Wow! That was some crazy snow! Still really beautiful to see. But that tropical island does sound good❤😂
Yikes!! Wowzers Hannah!!😱
80’ cliff even!!🫣
Getting stuck in a tree well just sucks!! Super glad that you weren’t boarding alone! Smart!!🙏🏽 Thanks again for your awesome adventures! I’m sure many of us followers live vicariously through your videos!!🤙🏽🏂❄️🌞👙🌴

I survived the great historic snowstorm of 1978 in northern Michigan. 25 plus feet of snow. I no longer love the snow as I’m older.
First tracks and a roller coaster ride. Awesome.
Major props for continuing snowboarding after that Tree Well debacle. 👍 You were really wedged in there. Not to mention the 80' cliff you avoided! I'm sure you were glad to get down to the bottom of the run and had an adult beverage in the Sprinter Van afterwards...lol... maybe 2!
You make everything fun..Never a dull moment..i wonna live in hannahs world...❤ from London
Woo that’s a lotta snow. I actually thought of you when I heard about the avalanche at the ski park a couple weeks back.
I grew up in Iowa and living now in Texas I miss the snow. They shut everything down if it snows half an inch here. 😂
Stay frosty (but not frozen) Hannah.
Another really great video of you right in the middle of a snowstorm
stay safe, warm and take care Hannah.🇺🇲💜👋👋💜🇺🇲
Looks like that town did what Helen, GA did, and transformed into a tourist town. Looked like fun. Glad you have the skills to handle the closed Pass. Keep up the fun adventures!
Yet another wonderful adventure!
Well done, Dr. Hannah!
P.S. Thank you for visiting our wonderful State of Washington.
Im going horse back riding in the morning, wish you were coming to !!!
Rollercoaster looked like fun 😂

Hannah you did Leavenworth! That is awesome! Steven’s Pass is where you go when you feel you need a challenge!
You should have called, I live not far from there I could have helped
Leavenworth! Cool beans. I was there not long ago. Be safe and stay warm, girl!
Breath taking as always !!!
You’re braver than I am in that snow board , especially an area such as that 😅. As always enjoyed the video and your smile 😀
Welcome to the PNW! Fuel is insane out there!!! Leavenworth is really cool. BIG tourist trap in spring, summer, fall and frequented in winter.
Nice snowboard shredding!!!
I second the snow choice.
Hi Hannah ! ❤ FYI diesel fuel used to be considered a cheap junk fuel. Amazing how fast things , and priorities change. Safe travels !
Happy Friday, Hannah. Your sense of adventure gets you into interesting situations. I'm sure if you were on a beach, you'd be dreaming of snow .

I never knew about the Leavenworth Bavarian charm. Definitely will visit it someday. Thank you Hannah❤
7.50 love it

Tons of snow wow.
Beautiful video as always, Dr! The vittles looked mighty tasty. Did you eat the whole thing or get leftovers to go?
OOH OOH!! HANNAH!!! PUUHHHLLEAAASE TELL ME YOU ATE AT ANDREAS KELLER!!! First place actually opened by a Bavarian! GREAT atmosphere, BETTER FOOD!!
Hannah your Amazing !! Lovely views !! Hope you have a wonderful weekend and stay safe and warm !!!!!!!! 💖

That was good one. I really liked.it. you covered everything!
Looks like you had so much fun Hannah
Great adventure Hannah…I got caught in a tree well once and dropped about 20 feet backwards …. Took me a half hour to dig out…. Oh! You look beautiful wherever you are adventuring….. in the snow or on a deserted beach somewhere….. happy day Hannah…. State well and safe… see you on your next adventure…. Always Gary…..
You never cease to amaze me. Beauty all around😉
Awesome Video! Thanks ⛄
I wonder the same about the shifting in gas and deisel prices. That little German town was cool. Glad you didn't go off a cliff.
You sure get yourself into some interesting predicaments you love the rain and the snow in the sunshine and I just love to see all the different swimsuits that you wear. I just wonder how many you do have
How beautiful all the way around!
I went over Steven's Pass 3 days in a row during that same week. It was treacherous & closed several times. Also your visit to the roller coaster in Leavenworth was awesome!. I live 30 minutes from there & still haven't ridden it. Great video 👍
Cool vid. Hope there is a sensor in the heater exhaust that shuts it down when it blocks.
😂I bet you have fun going back to get your camera sometimes. People forget there are parts of Washington State that gets a good bit of wet snow, it builds up fast. Stay warm Hannah.
It's part of her workout routine, plant camera, do cool things, go back for camera, repeat!
Cracks me up I almost bought one till I tried to lift the front end , and the riding position back in the day was hilarious all stooped over back killer , engine was a bad mofo as we're most all the triples and that massive 136 x1 1/2 track !!! Good ole days rode my 530 ext for 20,000 miles all stooped over like that !!
Nice video thanks for sharing ❤
Hope you are having fun out there. Stay safe and warm.
Cool to see you up in my back yard. Hope you had fun.

COME BACK IN THE SUMMER!! There are some ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC HIKES off of Stevens!!
Snowboarding adventure girl!😮
Awesome. You can get a battery powered Carbon Monoxide Detector for the sprinter to monitor the diesel heater.
The roller coaster was pretty cool
Great video. Hard to believe we have no snow in Toronto, Canada. I actually miss the lack of snow. I hear your story about diesel prices, it's insane. Yes diesel was cheaper, shortly after buying a diesel car prices reversed and the price keeps going higher.

Love your show and becareful
Pretty please have fun for me. How much snow did you guys get? Was it nice with all that powdered snow? Was it really nice?
Got to vote for sandy beaches .
Yeah, give me the beach over being snowed in any day!
