I recently spent 3 days snow camping out of my Jeep in Stanley Idaho near the Sawtooth mountain range. Temperatures dropped down to -12C (9F) and I even got some fresh snowfall during my time there.

This was definitely the hardest of the last 4 winter camping vlogs to film! Hope you guys enjoy though and thanks for all the support. I am putting together a Q/A later this month so comment any questions you guys have about my life on the road, photography, filmmaking or just general questions about myself! Will be answering the top 10-15 most asked. I get asked a ton how I find camp spots and I've recently been using DYRT. They are doing 3 months free for their premium features if you use code "drew90". Thanks for all the support! thedyrt.com/pro?tap_a=84498-3...
Fantastic cinematography! I have to ask - what equipment (specially camera, drone, and lens) are you using?
Never mind - I just read the description (duhhh!)
Good to know you’re doing okay
This was DOPE (as always). I’m always so impressed by your dedication to getting a million different interesting angles and I can’t imagine how much extra effort it was in that weather haha. I’d love to know how you spend your days when you’re not filming (maybe a day in the life, if it’s something different to what you show here?). Also I’m sure there’s plenty to keep you occupied but I’m curious whether you ever get lonely/bored being by yourself so much, and also what your thoughts are on campgrounds vs, wild camping (pros and cons, preferences, etc). Excited to set out in my Jeep in April! You’ve given me a ton of build/travel/camping inspo to go off of so thank you heaps for all that you share!
you should have cover for the rear when you cook so snow doesn't get inside the burner. Causes rust etc.
Killing me Drew. Everything with ease. No rush no pressure. Good life.
Really glad you enjoyed it Bianca
I typically don't watch RUclips camper videos that are over 30 minutes long, but once I started this one, I did not want to stop because of the scenes, choice of music and the sense of peacefulness solitary living brings with it. I am 73 and this is the kind of life I would like to live for the rest of my life. However, that is not going to happen because of the many commitments and responsibilities I have. But videos like this let me live vicariously through the life others live, and for now, that's about as good as it gets. Drew . . . do this for as long as you can, and enjoy each new adventure. I know there is an income aspect of your life that isn't emphasized in your videos and is a necessity, keep living the good life.
Is Don is good.
Go check out Foresty Forest. He's unreal and has good production value and not long video's.
@Don So You mean He probably did the right thing in in like 2010 - 2013, which we all didn´t ? :D
Well stated! I have 'sacrificed' my entire life and did have a mini window of living my dream, but sacrificing always played out.....I LOVE all these videos!
This is such a sweet and wise comment that reached over 200 people. Thank you for letting us reflect on what's important in life. It's not material things (although they help us and are convenient).
It teaching our children the value of hard work, that the best things in life are free. and that amusement parks and fancy designer bags are the end all be all. But is the quality of life.
Know what I like about you? Your quietness. You don’t feel the need to fill your video with useless chatter. I can appreciate the sounds of the crackling fire, or the wind, the stillness, itself. Thank you! Stay safe and well! A land-locked easterner. 🙂
MAJOR props for all the effort you put into your shots, like using a tripod in sub zero temperatures when you can't feel your fingers. I know the pain and it was well worth it for this video!
Yup, I lost a fully charged drone in low temps like this. The only thing that made sense to me was frozen precip as it was flying. Just know it sent me some great shots, then started flying lower and lower, video got spotty and bloop… it was gone. It must have done a sweet deep dive into the snow, LOL!
Yeah -10... so cold... you don't know cold.
@@youtubemodsaresnowflakelef7692 who the fuck cares what YOU think “cold” is… when youre talking about people that live in hot ass states like me in florida then yeah.. -10 degrees is fucking freezing.
@@GandAngie "Mimimimi I'm a mangina, impressed by mister luxury 'camping', super survivalist"
@@GandAngie then why is he using C not F -10c in canada is nothing to us
This video's production quality is absolute insane! It is mind blowing how one person can create this caliber content. Keep it up!
I have to agree here. I'm trying to find the words to express how beautifully you captured this place. I grew up in Challis. You have an amazing talent.
Agreed. Also if you like this kind of production; you should check out Kraig Adams. He does amazing hiking videos all over the world and his cinematography is insane.
@@joeaardvark9214 Thank you

Drew calling his Hollywood grade short film a “vlog” is the humblest thing I’ve ever seen
It’s like watching a movie, the cinematography is phenomenal and on point 🥂
Thanks Anthony! Really appreciate it man
Looks like the scene from the shining

The insulation sagging in is actually what allows it to insulate well. The massive gap of air between the inner and outer layer of the tent provides a very efficient insulating barrier.
I'm a Nurse, I had a really really chaotic and bad shift, but after watching this video I was so calm and relaxed that I could totally forget what was before!!
Keep up the good work -> I absolutely love your videos!
Sorry to hear you were having a rough day Raphael. Really glad my video helped! Thanks for the support
Same here. Just another mad Friday at work and with this video I know there´s hope :) I will definitely do something similar one day!
@@hammerradiology1470 yes most people our stuck at there job sometimes I dream I can just do this escape it all hopefully one day when I get my money to wear I can do this and just travel 🙏
Your channel is so underrated/undersubbed. I can't give you enough respect for how you execute your craft!
Thanks Brian. Really appreciate hearing that man!
U r absolutely right. His craft is on different level.
It’s seriously one of the best channels out there. Great personality and absolutely amazing and stunning videography. I recommend him to everyone. Should have WAY more followers.
Drew Simms how many miles are on your jeep?
Absolutely
Great winter camping video! I grew up in Lower Stanley with my Grandparents. I had a river in my back yard and a mountain in the front! The magic of the Stanley Basin, lakes and the Sawtooth range never goes away. Thank you for the reminder of my roots.
This dude is living out of 20 sq.ft. and still cooks/eats better than I do
He's a good cook, love the veggies & the protein.
NO HES CAMPING, NOT "LIVING OUT A JEEP"
Cooking is not about space and gadgets it’s about having the time to do it and a little skill or a recipe imo.
@PHOTOMAN416 416 no he’s living out a jeep you snowflake
you can't afford bread, eggs, avacado, and some meat??
I can watch these kinds of videos for hours. Thank you for showing us how beautiful this world actually is
As long as there isn't other humans present, haha.
Finally an overlanding video where someone did more activity than just driving and camping. The snowshoeing was great. Excellent content.
This dude is living the dream. There are countless Van life adventure videos out there, but there are a very selected few who manage to capture the peace and the serenity of nature. While showing the real reason people want to live the van life atleast once in their lifetime.
Yea I agree. I bought a 79 dodge brougham camper for me and my brother to love in. Its slightly bigger than a van , but not by much. Me and my brother are getting it fixed up so we can go up north and see the country. We always lives in the woods and places like this look amazing
We are an Austrian family and we really enjoy you vlogs, looking them together in the living room! Thank you Drew! We like the really great shots of nature, your relaxed style, the cooking parts and your comments and since we also love snow we really appreaciate your videos. Keep on doing.
Thanks Byron! Really love to hear you all enjoy the videos!
I can’t wait to live like this. I cry thinking about it.
I've never been happier to find a channel on RUclips like this one. Drew, you are an inspiration. I can't imagine the effort that you put into making a video like this. Thanks for creating and sharing this. God bless!
I lived in Idaho till I was nine. I miss Idaho for the beautiful wilderness and animals. The winters there are amazing I miss going up to Henry's lake early in the morning and watching all the snow fall and the sun rise through the snow covered trees. This video brings back memories. Thanks for the video!!!
How cozyyyyy, how comfortable to see it is
I am going through tough times medically and it had my spirits down. Watching this video reminded me that to push through, means to someday experience such things as shown masterfully within this vlog. It was my introduction to your channel, and I hope the same for many others - this video SERIOUSLY sets the pace for other wilderness and camper life vloggers, let alone the pace for anybody who thinks they "do it right" hahaha. Much love man, thank you for calming the nerves and motivating however odd that may seem, and I am for damn sure a lifelong sub. You deserve about a billion more.
I hope you are well, and that those times are now behind you.
@@elib7311 Thank you, Eli. Things are looking up. Amazing what willpower and a bit of motivation can see us through. I wish the same prosperity and happiness for you
The way you manage to capture the beauty of nature is amazing. It's like watching a movie.
Dude! I really admire your willingness to go through so much hassle and struggle to show the world what you go though to be able to expose to us how amazingly beautiful and complicated nature can be. You are asserted, objective and down to earth on every step of the way! You have an amazing future ahead of you, I just hope you keep doing what you do the same way; objective, simple and down to earth! If you loose those amazing qualities: you are doomed to fail. But you know you won’t, I know you are not aware of how amazingly wonderful you are! You have a beautiful soul and that is key in your life success!!)
Drew. You're the man. Seriously dude. Your style of editing, cinematography, and overall personality/presence is so kind and calming. Most of us don't have an attention span longer than 1 minute but somehow I'm able to focus on your entire video for the full 48 minutes, no distractions, just fully immersed in the content on the screen. I've said it once, I'll say it again, thanks for sharing this adventure and taking us along to these places. You teach me a bunch (setting up camp, equipment, cooking, dishwashing lol) and truly inspire me to pursue this once I am able. Stay safe brother and keep living the dream.
Really can't tell you how much I appreciate hearing this man. Just to hear that my work has any kind of affect on people really means alot to me so thank you for taking the time not only to watch, but to reach out with the kind words! Cheers man
Watching everyday to calm and relax. Lots and lots and lots of love to your work 🙏🏻💐❤️😊✌🏻
Same
I also look at this at night. It relax me and I fall asleep.🙂🌨️❄️ There is something that is relaxing about the snow freezing rain and nature.

Freedom night on wellspring ministries youtube will teach you how to relax. Do it. You'll see
Same here
I’m watching this in awe because of all the angles and shots you got to tell your story. I appreciate every single one man. Inspiring really.
i just appreciate the fact that he leaves the cam back so many times, imagine doing something than just go back and get the cam🤣, hes kinda doin it twice thx dude
It can be a hassle but it's fun to set up the shots and try unique angles of the experience!
@@drewsimmscan you set up shots with a drone, hovering in a stationary position, and then you just have the drone come back to you?
You should check out Kraig Adams. That man is a true master of the above lol
I appreciate it as well! But remember, time is his friend.

I've always loved the cooking aspect of camping. Food tastes way better outdoors.
And made with real fire! Mmmmm
My 18 year old son and i have been binge watching your adventures and loving every minute!
The insane amount of work you have put behind capturing each shot won’t go unnoticed my friend. May you hit a mil soon 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wow, you're such a talented videographer! I really appreciate how you separate experiencing/showing us around and explaining things, and don't find a need to narrate as you do them- it makes all the quiet shots so much more poignant and peaceful. You're probably the first adventurer I follow who doesn't add in loud punchy music all the time to make things feel exciting.... the views already are beautiful enough which is already exciting!
I added a thumbs up to Jenny's comment, but I wish I could actually give it about 25 thumbs up. The video quality is astounding, your choice to use silence rather than zippy music is fantastic, and I am a new sub based on this. Thank you very much for producing such an amazing content! Oh, and the footage starting at 44:45. Wow!!!
I love it when people blow on fires that are well established 😆😆
Making my state look absolutely breathtaking!
Idaho is one of my favorite spots I've been to over the last 2 1/2 years
Hey Drew, I'm from a place in India where is mostly summers I have never seen snow. For someone like me winter camping has always been a dream I'm glad your vlog keeps that dream alive
Glad to hear I could help Manish!
The effort you put in every single video is amazing. Beyond that, the real purpose of living life like you do is stunning. We only live once and you are doing it in the best way possible. Greetings from Perú 🇵🇪
I just found this. Best set up I’ve seen. Your cooking, organization, filming... very comforting. Thanks
Simply incredible how you take us into the experience!
I agree. It’s an achievement.
Thank you, i really love all your cooking too.
It blows my mind how you're not sponsored by Jeep yet. Incredible content!
That would be nice haha. Thanks Ali!
@@drewsimms what jeep model is it pls?
@@freddiecastagna4137 a wrangler maybe
Loving the regular uploads - keep it up drew, you’re killing it
Thanks! Trying to squeeze in a bit more winter camping before spring
@@drewsimms came across your videos and man am I glad. Love the content. You seem like an amazing dude. You look good man. Keep it up

Nothing like idaho forests in winter, this is where I did most of my growing up.
Not another Drew video showing me what my life could be while I’m stuck at my bs desk job right now. Love you dude, keep up the good work!
Hang in there Gabby, get all the work experience possible, you will become valuable👍
this god damn guy cooks and eats better than I do and he's in the middle of nowhere outside in the back of a Jeep and I'm standing in my kitchen after I just spent 200bucks at the grocery store fml
Haha these meals always taste better when you are camping, especially when its cold out!
This was exactly what I was thinking too! I’m over here taking notes at the simplicity of the recipes! Love the art of savoring the flavors in the great outdoors!
@@user-cm3uo6lu6o Knowing how to cook is definitely NOT an intuitive thing. I had to marry someone who had loads of practice before I started not being horrible at it. With camping, salt, pepper, and a few all purpose seasoning packs, like what you can buy online from Penzy's, goes a LONG way. Lol.
@@rabidhellhound9714 thanks for the info. I just bought the 16 spice pack. First I've heard of Penzys.
Dude. You summed up my thoughts completely. Even the $200 of groceries and still nothing but junk to eat lol
I like the cold times
The quality of these videos are the best I've seen. Incredible man. I'm excited to know that your channel will explode if you keep this up.
I know right the quality is crazy
The shots that the start of all your videos honestly turn me on
Stanley ID is awesome, you should see the summer time. You can hike 50 miles or so along the top of most of the sawtooths that you see in the beginning.
Haha i love it
@@smarterworkout Yes to that ^^
@@smarterworkout the Wind River mountains are some rugged mountains. Places up there you don't see anyone. Just a grizzly or two.

Never seen or knew a rooftop tent was even a thing. Very cool. I imagine it gives you a lot of peace of mind.
Your hard work is such a blessing to us that get to watch and appreciate nature that most of us will never see 💜 Thank you 🙏
I can tell when a channel is destined for greatness. Your channel will grow fast with this kind of quality. Nice job!
Thanks Uriel!
Absolutely beautiful. This video felt like therapy. This is the life I want to love
Everything in your vlog (quality, shots, editing, many more) is on different level. Man Your content is do satisfying I can't even tell in words, its like one of the best i have ever seen.
Thanks Vipul! Really appreciate hearing that
This is camping ASMR at it's best! The quality and time that goes into each video is amazing, Drew. Keep on!
Absolutely love how calming this video is
The intro made me feel like I'm watching a movie, that production quality is extreme,
given that its all done by one dude,
thats fucking awesome
Watched this the first time thoroughly and then immediately put it on again afterwards and fell asleep to how calming and tranquil the video was!
The force of nature, everything.
The cinematography is on another level. There’s Hollywood DP’s that can’t a hold a candle to your stuff, keep it up!
Thank you! Really appreciate hearing that
Mate, you've outdone yourself! The quality of your work is on another level, and congrats on 100K+ followers 🤙🏼
Thanks Luc! Really appreciate the kind words man
Living your best life!!! So glad I found this channel with such gorgeous inspiration ❤🙏🏻stay safe !
Watched all 48 minutes and I'm not upset that I did
I think I speak for us all when I say these videos are amazing especially in a time of such uncertainty
Thank you Drew
Love to hear that Connor! Thanks for the kind words
LOL. It was so good that I thought it only lasted 10 minutes. I had not realized that I was watching for 40 minutes.

It's extremely tough to be out there during demanding conditions.......but to film too is remarkable......bravo!!
The beginning of the video feels like the snow scenes from Eclipse and I love it
Beautiful drone footage. Wonderful winter snow land.
47:45 do you know what it called the jacket that he wearing?
You make me really want to try snow camping! I legit just teared up at the drone footage. So beautiful.
Methodical and very organized ! You have a place for everything. Awesome video!!
Wow I loved the intro! So peaceful and serene. The cinematography is top notch and the music is spot on.
This is just amazing, can’t stop watching your videos. Great job and keep doing this. Greetings from Germany!
I have been living in my Jeep JKU for 3 weeks now in northern UT. I work for a Non Profit and work remotely. I am figuring out daily what I need for my myself and my 77 lb Boxer. Drew was my inspiration for going off grid with my Jeep. Thank you, Drew.
Man the effort you put into your shots throughout the entire videos is insane. Deserves 1M subs
Thanks Antonio!
Splendid. You are doing what my heart wants to do, but my mind says "shut up" LOL.
Thank you so much for such amazing adventures. Drew is the best!
thanks Deepak!
I really appreciate that you don't feel it necessary to narrate everything you're doing. It's much more relaxing just watching you take us through the experience. Keep it up man!
Drew. Everything about this footage was awesome from the start to end. The drone captures looked fantastic. I love sunrise aerial drone shots. Food looked pretty delicious too. Tent space on top of your jeep, looked comfy chuckles. But looking for more adventures! Amazing job dude!
Can’t wait for the next upload. All the vids are so relaxing and dreamy. Love them
Thanks Grav! More on the way
I am impressed with your lifestyle and your cooking ability .
As a fan of minimal living and nature, I really appreciate this video and the production effort put into it. Best of luck to you!
Amazing drone shots! Wow.
Thank you!
The mountain in that thumbnail….I could look at it for hours. True beauty is hard to find, but you sir are a master.
insulation tight up against the tent would be less R value due to you not having an Air buffer that helps insulate. I think having it sag is in convenient but better for warmth.
Yes, it needs the air-gap!!
Is that true for insulating vans too?
Having a small air gap is always beneficial regardless the thing your insulating.
Incredible production quality. Inspiring!
You always find these hot springs! Keep up the videos! Great scenery shots. It is very beautiful.
I honestly started watching these videos through boredom and being nosey how the cars/ vans look inside, instead I have found some brilliant filming,photography and documentaries into peoples lives, the vans now a second reason. Thanks,love the video
Honestly! If you like this check out Overlanding videos. That’s pretty much what this is this guy focuses on more of the scene and filming, whereas they usually focus on the gear and the off the grid trip. TrailRecon is one of my favorite channels a good combination of both!
Stunning as usual. I wish we had snow like that here in England, jealous. Keep up the amazing work.👍
I've driving through idaho state few years ago and i couldn't imagine what ive missed, winter just makes everything different. thank you for sharing such beautiful scenery with us.
Production quality is wonderful, truly you deserve more support, keep it up drew
Just found this today, its a masterpiece, congrats!
Remember a watching a previous winter sub freeze truck camper who used a goal zero 1500x portable power station and a electric dc small heating pad to put into his sleeping bag and stayed warm in similar conditions. The camper reported it worked great and provided a warm comfortable sleep through the cold night. no fumes no fire risk and you can boost the goal zero with the car 12 volt outlet on your trips into town etc .
Your production quality is amazing! I hope someday to achieve something like this!
Thanks Chase! Really appreciate hearing that man
This is by far one of my favorite videos of all time! I love these kinds of videos, it inspires me, calms me, and overall is mesmerizing. Amazing amazing job! Please please upload more! I know for a fact everyone would love more frequent Vlogs 😍!
Thank you for your content! Keep Rockin!
Awesome start, WOW!
I get a lot of Foresty Forest vibes from this dude when it comes to his style of recording/editing.
Hey Drew I don’t know if you will see this comment but I am going through a hard time in my life right now and your video brought me back down to reality. It shows how beautiful the world is and how blessed we are. The morning shots with the drone nearly brought a tear to my eye. Seriously man, good video.
You got it man.👍
Stay strong buddy.. We got this💪🏻

Beautiful Cinematography❤
Tip: save a bit of the pasta water to put into the sauce- makes it extra delicious!
Mhmm gonna have to try that next time!
Boil the pasta in broth til its all absorbed, makes it sooo creamy & delicious. Don’t boil in water & drain.
This is a cooking tip that you’ll be glad you know, try it & you’ll see👍 (if you don’t have broth just use water til its covered).
Love the videos man. Thanks for putting out high quality content for people to enjoy. Keep up the good work.
Best water camping solution I've ever seen. Will try to build this!
Love the whole set up, well thought out.
I just discovered your channel. Awesome video quality! Really makes me want to get out and enjoy nature, thank you!
This was my first time watching your channel, and I have to say that you are very talented! The music and scenery that you chose to put in are absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing this with us!
The way you are maintaining your calm, its just so inspiring. Loved the vlog thoroughly. Keep up the good work. This video made me subscribe to you :) Such an awesome quality content.
