Surviving an Extreme Blizzard - Huge Snow Storm in a Van - Cozy Winter Van Life Camping

- Surviving my 2nd Winter of Extreme Van Life in Hurricane, Blizzard, Snow Storm & Camping in Freezing Temperatures. From Triple Hurricane inferno in the Arctic to a huge Blizzard further North. This was not the scariest part of my 2,000 Mile Drive through the Arctic and the Arctic Ocean, that was in the previous Hurricane episode.
Winter is here! Part 7 for my 2024 Arctic tour. Blizzard, Snow Storm Camping & Freezing Cold. Cozy Van Life Winter Camping in Snow Storm, blizzard, surviving extreme weather & temperatures #vanlife #wintervanlife #blizzard
Please stay safe from the Huge Record-Breaking Sierra Nevada California Blizzard my friends in the US.
3 record breaking hurricanes surprised me and hit the arctic coast within one week as I was traveling in my van to the outlying islands. The hurricanes where the strongest that have ever been measured in the country and reached wind speeds of over 62 m/s, or 140 mph. Records where set that where way higher than this again. Red alerts where issued for all along the coast, and I ended up in the middle of it, not by my choice, but when ferries are involved things can get tricky. I decided to run for my life to get out of there, and instead take my chances against a massive Blizzard. It was fierce!
My van is a Fiat Ducato, FWD with Nokian Hakkapalitta studless Winter Tires. This is the same as a Ram Promaster in America - USA and Canada.

Surviving my 2nd Winter of Extreme Van Life, Blizzard, Snow Storm Camping & Freezing Cold which includes:
This is my complete second winter of Winter Van Life in extreme conditions in the North, living in a van during freezing temperatures. Starting in November I go through the whole winter season of snowy winter adventures from November to April, with snow storms, blizzards, extreme cold, extreme snowfall, slippery roads and some amazing winter beauty as well.
I also show you what I learn as I go from my second winter in the van.
About me: I am a Norwegian adventurer and wilderness explorer. My youtube channel focus on outdoor wilderness adventures and exploration, backpacking, hiking, canyoneering, skiing, climbing and mountaineering. Nights spent in a tent, alone or with friends. From the snow covered mountains and misty fjords of Norway and Scandinavia to the remote plateaus of Yellowstone and the debts of the red canyons of Utah to the summit of Mt Whitney and the heart of Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park. I love the Wilderness! Email is under "For business inquiries", for general questions please comment on a video, I try to answer everyone.

That looks so cool. I've always wanted to have a house on wheels where I can relax and have everything I need, like drinks, food, and more. And of course, I can't forget about a beautiful lady riding one of these vehicles with me.
@@drexq_477 Awesome!
Круто очень!.
👍👍👍👍
This guy is legend. He knows what he's doing, he doesnt go unprepared and even tho YOU might be watching him for the first time, camping in this weather is NOT his first rodeo! LOVE LOVE LOVE watching him.
Thank you so much Claire!
Nature's sounds have a therapeutic quality that soothes the soul and calms the mind. Whether it's the rhythmic crashing of ocean waves or the distant call of a lone wolf, each sound carries with it a sense of peace and grounding
Indeed!
What a great video!!! I love the snow when it’s like that!!!! Cheers buddy!!!! 👍👍👌👌
Glad you enjoyed it
@@NorwegianXploreryes man!!!!! Glad I found your channel!!! You got a fan here watching from New Jersey USA!!!!!
🇺🇸🇳🇴🇳🇴🇺🇸
@@AirborneAnt Lovely, thank you so much!!
This is insane! How do you survive in such harsh weather? I can’t imagine living in a van during a massive blizzard and a snow storm. You must have some serious skills and courage. I admire your spirit and your passion for van life. You are awesome! 💯💯💯
Thank you, I am not sure the blizzards are the worst, I think the hurricanes feel more scary
Jarl has shared numerous other serious weather adventure in a tent. Check 'em out.
@@whatevs4531The prior several years his adventures were in tents during serious weather.
He has been almost completely buried in snow before-he knows what he’s doing
I agree completely! Thank you for being so brave and sharing with us Jarl!!❤
Wow. Looks cozy. I never thought I could survive living in a van by the Hudson River
Thanks!
Wow, I really love extreme weather conditions and you're really experiencing some! Good job you have that super cosy van to retreat to when it gets too severe.
Thanks so much!
Hello Arctic Jarl :-) When it gets a little sad, I watch your storms and winter adventures :-) If it’s stormy, then I feel good :-)
I am so glad to hear that my friend!
You are a unique survivalist. You seem to take everything in stride, enjoying the wonders of nature and the thrill of your adventure. I love that we can come along with you and share in your experience. It is truely a beautiful world.
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoy my journey!
I absolutely love harsh weather, especially blizzards!! I’m Canadian through and through 😂 what can I say……. Thank you for your time and care, I’m really enjoying tagging along ❄️❄️❄️
Awesome, thank you!
I admire your stamina in those conditions. Now go inside and get warm.
Thank you!
I love winter
Me too!
Absolutely superb that even during these harsh weather spells, you manage to put out amazing content . Be safe and safe travels
Thank you Neil, it can be a bit stressful, but I do get inspired by such weather events, it is probably the adrenaline rush that sparks some creativity
I’ve never seen anyone so relish this kind of weather! You are a wonder and the snowstorm is an awesome beauty!
Omg that guy skiing 😮
Haha, Bea, I love this stuff:-)
Cantik alam yang indah, salam saya dari hutan hujan tropis indonesia
Greetings!
Dangerous brutal weather for walkers and skiers for balance. Excellent microphone and it’s always coffee/tea time with extreme temperatures. We grow our own hot chilies for quesadillas. Love your cozy mobile home. In New Mexico, you astounded us again, thank you.
Thank you, just been watching a lot of TV from New Mexico, would love to go there again soon!
An awesome beautiful site - that blizzard. Wild, free, untouched, and whimsical snow flying through the sky. It was a good strategy that your van positioned facing the wind direction. And the next morning was so gorgeous. Not much snow build-up at all. Thankful for that snowplow to do such a thorough job in clearing your parking area. Looking forward to the "deep white unknown of the north"!! LOVE IT - cannot wait to join you again to the north.
Glad you enjoyed it my friend, it was epic, there was actually quite a lot of snow, but the area around the van was blown completely clean, apart from the sharkfin.
I am jealous 😫
Another spectacular video! You're the king of coziness!
haha, thanks so much!!
Thanks for sharing your snowy experiences.
Thanks for watching Phyllis!
In spite of all the extreme cold, the scenery is beautiful and so pretty!!!
🥶❄️☃️🌨️🌡️🌬️🧤🧣🚐🔥☕🕯️🔦🥶🏆🫶💤

Since I subscribed your channel , I am watching the videos again and again. Awesome, so real….
Thanks a bunch!
All I can say is wow! Thanks for showing the landscape to us!
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Türkiye Adana şehrinde yasıyorum. Buraya kar yağmıyor sizin videolarinizla teselli buluyoruz
Thank you, glad to hear that!
Blizzard videos are the best. Cheers from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Cheers!
Treat your van with kindness. The arctic is very hard on automotive systems. Brake fluid picks up condensation and may freeze. Batteries may not charge when frozen.
O what a perfect life you have 😍. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thanks, my pleasure!
I always love your videos especially when you take us on your road trips. I feel like I am sitting on the passenger seat enjoying the scenery.
Glad you like them! Heading much further north into the wide open spaces now
Genial 😂🎉
Thanks!
wow beautiful
Thank you🙏
Greetings 🤠 from New England, USA! 🎉
Hello there!
Our Mother Earth
Your video Jarl looks like the blizzard right now up at Donner Pass in the Sierra's . Thanks again for a great watch my friend .
Hey John, yes, so I have heard, i heard Palisade summit had a gust of 190mph
What a beautiful video, showing Mother Nature at her most extreme and most amazing. What a man you are - do you feel the cold at all? When you think of that amount of snow and each flake is different - Mother Nature I take my hat off to you in respect. Thank you so so much.
Hey thank you, yes I get cold fingers and feet sometimes
Damn i wish i was there with you brother. This is awesome
Thanks my friend!
You know what’s good to eat while watching a snowstorm? Taco Bell spicy burritos and tacos😂
Haha, I bet, we dont have that here
I Love snow & we barely had any this winter & i live in Chicago so i enjoy these videos
Glad you like them!
Hello, Jarl, from
the White Mountains of New Hampshire, USA. The snowstorm videos are my favorite-especially the ones where you go camping!! Love this channel.
Thank you Jeanette!
Tent camping, I mean.
Thanks, sadly there is very little interest when I post the tent camping videos, unless it is a snowstorm. Maybe too many people making those videos now
That was intense going from hurricane to blizzard. Ill take the snow anytime as long as u have a roof over ur head and heat its definitely better. We love watching all the snow she sits here watching and saying "bbrrrr" so cute. Be safe and warm. 💕💕🔥🔥💜💕🇺🇲
Haha, love it Pat!
You are a true braveheart👍 Love your passion for travelling and exploring harsh weather conditions. Thanks for sharing such amazing videos🥂
My pleasure 😊
बहुत सुंदर और आरामदायक वीडियो
Thanks
Jarl, I grew up on Long Island New York. The most severe winter storm I can remember was the massive Northeast Blizzard of 1978. Snow drifts 6 to 7 feet high. Brought the entire Northeast United States to a standstill for a week. Even that storm pales in comparison to the extreme blizzards you encounter. Especially those winds packing a serious wallop of force, driving the snow horizontally. Absolutely incredible. Are you worried at all that the fierce winds combined with snow and dirt particles will damage the paint finish on your van?
Thank you for another amazing adventure! 🙏❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️☕️☕️☕️🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬🌀🌀👌💯
Thanks my friend, the van gets a good deep clean in conditions like this, not worried about anything flying through the air in a blizzard no, a little bit more concerned in hurricanes
Watching from Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Cool!
surreal scene, beautiful. hunkered down, relaxing with the sound of rain and whistle of the wind...and drink that well earned coffee
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Jarl what a amazing blizzard mother nature being fierce in her extremities, it's a good job your organised and regularly check the weather reports. In extreme weather conditions it's vital to be prepared for your own and others safety. I enjoy watching your content thankyou. Take care, keep warm and dry and stay safe 🥰🥶🙏❄🌬x
Thank you Sara!!
Greetings from Redondo Beach CA 🇺🇸Nice work on this video. Stay safe, warm and dry. Cheers 🥂
Thanks, you too!
Wow that’s is frozen tundra right there if can hardly see people not far away .
Maybe I should have watched it in July, everything was so deep,covered I truly got a bone deep chill.Dont know how you do it sir.Retirement on a tropical 🐠 Island. Very well photographed, excellent editing.Take care
Thank you!
You are crazy but what a beautiful video!! Thank you for being brave enough to be out in that kind of weather. What a storm! 😊
It was crazy indeed, thank you Andrea!
Much enjoyed Beautiful drone footage. It is really paying off in the cinematography side. The van, hell, Jaws. Fun to watch during new knee theraphy. I had it done. Much better but sore as a fork in the eye. Lots theraphy. Everyday better. Those high points aren't getting away from my travels.
Glad you are recovering Same! Get strong and climb those peaks!!
❤❤❤
Very nice.keep up!
Thanks Johny!
N Ex..Content and editing as always beyond professional... It's the Saturday night slot...

good day to you, great video as always, little to cold for this south Texas guy, be safe out there.
Thanks Clint!!
The best thing you can do in such magnificent stormy weather is to sleep in the caravan.
Couldn't agree more!
Have fun stay safe! The videos are great! Cheers from the USA🇺🇸
Appreciate it very much!!
Very good good video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
Greetings from Indonesia....
Hello!
Dostum dikkat et kurtlara 🐺
What a truly magnificent upload I really loved it thank you
Thank you so much!
I just don’t understand why there aren’t any places such as a garage or large bays u can park INSIDE during the worst of such storms. Yes ok u go walk out n it n film but parking n protection of cover. OY VEY 🥴
The grey warrior is EPIC n its protection of u. So is G-D n this is why I pray for His safety over u This blizzards n hurricanes r crazy.
I am grateful for the snow plowers of our world ! I just love how cozy the grey warrior is inside. Love the tropical Christmas theme u have going n those tea lites r just wonderful.
ALWAYS a joy u give us n our visits with u Jarl n we thank u !!!
👍🙏❤️‼️
TJ
Thank you TJ, there are garages in malls, but they are not tall enough for my can to get into, so that doesnt work. What I am scared of in winds like that is the van being blown over, if a gust hits from the side, or the sub roofs being ripped off:-)
@@NorwegianXplorer YES this holds my concerns too.
But you know I am carefull:-)
@@NorwegianXplorer I absolutely know this. U r wise n ur surroundings. It’s not u that I don’t trust. It’s other ppl n nature. Both can b insane.
👍🙏
Yes, true that, I would probably think we have less of an issue with ppl up here in the north than you might have. We are spred quite thin up here, and there are not really any violence at all.
Thanks to the wild snowman ...
My pleasure!
Sure enjoy all your video's. I also use your two hour special, to help me go to sleep--unlike many video's that are fake, yours's is the real deal. Totally enjoy your cooking and creative landscape shots. I am 73 now in lung cancer remission. I grew p in blizzards, etc--Thank You
Thank you so much!
That’s frightening, but you know how to handle it. We’ve had a pretty mild winter with only about 8 inches or so total here in Pennsylvania, USA.
It has been harsh up here
There’s definitely some appeal about Mother Nature roaring outside of your van and you are safe and warm inside. What an adventure to be right in the middle of it! Just found your channel and it’s wonderful! ✌️❤️
Thank you and welcome!
ÇOX GÖZƏL VIDEOLARINIZ VAR. AZƏRBAYCANDAN SALAMLAR. MENZERE HEYRƏTAMİZ İDİ. ❤

Well I don't know about looking like a wild snowman, but you sure are a crazy, brave, courageous, lunatic Viking Xplorer.
The video is phenomenal and thank you for sharing this very intense beauty ❤

Lunatic? 🤔
