SURVIVING A BLIZZARD IN A CAR! | Crazy Snowstorm Winter Car Camping in the Mountains

Getting into this pullout was challenge number one. The front wheel drive Ford Flex is already asking for chains. You almost didn't make it. For the last few hundred yards I've just been spinning gracefully up this mountain. Gracefully? Are those rusted? Yeah but they'll still work. It was only supposed to snow down to like 3,000 feet and we're barely at 2,000. Like two inches an hour or something. One chain on, one more to go. These chains have this auto tightening unfortunately. It's not very good. Well it tightens fine but it just doesn't tighten like enough because you kind of want some kind of bungee cord but we only have one bungee cord. Yeah what happened to all our bungee cords? They're somewhere in the car probably. Can only find one. Bumpy ride with these little chains on but we're making, I mean, we're making progress. Chad, this is his car, can't drive up anything. I mean any gradient if there's snow or ice on it. So there'd be no other way but the road is pretty snowed over here. As a front wheel drive car, Chad has gone more places than any other front wheel drive car ever. Well and it just, you feel invincible once you put chains on. It's like you've got a limited traction. We're not going fast. I don't know, we're going 15. Oh we're moving. Look how pretty it is outside. Look at that winter wonderland. Welcome back to the channel. We're in some nice weather. Miserable conditions. What was a seemingly, you know, snowy but peaceful drive up here has turned into an absolute snow globe of a blizzard. Yeah very windy, very cold. Somehow in these conditions we've got dinner to make. Yeah we're making burgers. But besides that I think we're spending most of the time inside the car. If not all of the time. Also it gets dark at 4 30. Oh my god. But we're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna go back in the car now. Yeah. Those are like chains. Got my very warm jacket because it was in the way. I'll put it under. Endless. All right. Now this side of the car blocks the wind so we're probably gonna make food there instead of out back. That's for you. Thank you. Generally I'd be doing this outside but I don't want to be outside. Sorry just debating how I want to do it. Veggies all done because I forgot the tomatoes. We got to go back outside permanently this time. Got a little bit of snow in our burgers but moisture. It's so much warmer in here. Got these nice uh Wagyu burgers. Come stay quick. Don't know how nice they are. Oh my god. You making too? Yeah. What? The most miserable thing of all time. It's not great. It's not what you want. My burger's gonna be done probably a lot faster than yours. You can go enjoy it. Oh you suffer. I wish we could translate just how cold it's like. Probably snow and all that. Yeah just put them in the bag. But with all the wind and wet snow coming down. This is what the car is gonna look like in the morning. You know what I'm excited for? Bundling. I'm just gonna take the That was worse than when we made the pizza. Oh way worse. Significantly worse. It's 10 degrees colder than that. Let's try these Wagyu burgers. I don't even know how done they are but I think they'll be fine. I was gonna say do you feel like they're cooked enough? Yeah. They okay? Feels good to eat. Well from here on out we're not stepping foot outside of this car again. Well we gotta clean up. We're gonna tread everything back. Alright we're stepping foot out of the car one time. And remember we have to go to the bathroom. I pee. Good job. You're a gold star. It got dark. Yeah it's not even five o'clock yet but look at that. Starting to snow more. We have to. I have to pee. Brave the cold and the second you open that door so much snow is gonna fly in here. It just feels so safe and happy in this little cocoon. Well here we go. You're making me leave my cocoon. I'm not ready to be a butterfly. I put my hood up and it falls back down. Well it's because you didn't zip all the way up. Well it's because my braids are in the way. Put my braids in. I'm just not gonna stay outside that long. Well we gotta put everything back. Yeah but that'll be quick. See how my side is looking. Oh wait it's really coming down. I'm ready. Oh my god. The snow. Oh my god. Oh my god. This is crazy. Get that stove packed up. This is insane. It's really really coming down. Um I think it was probably mine. Well go pee. Just pee right there. Oh my god. I'm gonna go back out and fish out my really big like minus 40 degree jacket because I mean I've been in a lot of cold temperatures and when it's that windy and snowy I mean it is less tolerable than you know minus even minus 10. Try to trap some heat in here. Yeah because you volunteered to go back here first. I volunteer as tribute. We're gonna hold this. Yeah excited? Look at this new comforter y'all. That's nice. This is an UGG comforter. Can we just all take a moment? We've slept in much colder in the car and we hope to do it again this winter. Yeah it's just so inconvenient when you have to like go pee outside or make food or something but once you're inside it's not so bad. And of course all the blankets and stuff got wet because every time you open the door a bunch of snow flies in. Well I think also because the window's wet like there's frost on the inside it's like dripping down. Yeah I'm sure it is. But that my bed is made. All right you gotta make my bed. I have to make his bed because he's a big boy. All right this is about the coziest I think I've ever been in the car. What about you? You're wearing two jackets. I can't even turn my head. I like this new blanket. Oh it's just so nice. Very luxurious. Well you know we've had to we've done the best we could with the four like 29 p.m sunset time. Yeah and also the fact that we don't want to go outside because like snow by itself is fine but you add in like wind. Wind really just becomes unbearable. You don't even want to be outside. You open the door and all of a sudden there's snow inside. It's like a snow globe in here. Like I have I have to bargain with myself to go pee. Yeah no you don't. It takes energy to go outside. No way because there is a pit toilet like a forest service toilet like over 100 yards away. No way I'm walking down there. But hopefully the snow you know we should be getting plenty of snow tonight it'll continue. We've already gotten plenty. Yeah and we can just wake up completely buried. That would be really cool. I mean we're not the car is not gonna be buried. Well the car's gonna be buried. We're gonna have to dig ourselves out with shovel. I'm excited. We have one shovel so who's gonna be doing that? Me. Well we're gonna lay here and probably watch Netflix or YouTube for the next couple hours because it's only like eight o'clock but it's been dark for four hours. We've been sitting in the front of Chad watching football and being cold. So we'll see you all tomorrow morning. Good night. Bye. The snow's almost to the level of the... Oh man look at the car. Look at that. Get out of here. Maybe we can push through these tracks with the chains on. I have no idea how we're gonna get out of here. We are completely completely buried. What do you mean buried? Well you'll come outside and see. Clearly not buried. You got out of the car. Well yeah but the snow's like a foot and a half deep. Yeah we're gonna have to just push forward with chains, dig ourselves. Luckily some snowmobilers went by long enough to make it like only a foot at one section that goes to where it's been plowed. Oh we're in an area that wasn't plowed? Well no because we were here. Yeah but they plowed around us didn't they? Not necessarily no. I guess we did park really far back. But I mean we're gonna have to come up with something. All right so the plan here is to dig ourselves onto where some snowmobilers went by and just hopefully Chad with the chains can kind of drive through slowly some of the snow. So I'm just gonna kind of dig a little curved path out of here and we'll see how that does. Just powder it'll just compress it. Chad is great. My feet are cold so look what I did. How'd that feel? It's warm. Well I mean yeah you drove away I had to walk through the snow by myself. Look at Chad's power. I mean unbelievable. Oh well you know what some of those little snow drifts were a few feet deep. We're very proud of Chad. Nothing stood in the way of the Chad. Chad without chains was going nowhere. Chad without chains didn't make it anywhere up the mountain. It's the chains. The chains are the MVP of this story. It's my driving is really what it is. It's not his driving. It's the chains. You're driving. If Chad didn't have chains would you have gotten anywhere? Yeah I would have done donuts. You wouldn't have made it up here. Well Chad is great though. The Chad is great. Well we survived the night no problem warm in our little well our little we had like all our layers on our sleeping bags and the comforter on top of this. I was I was very cozy. I'm not cozy now at all. I'm quite cold actually. But what a beautiful morning and awesome awesome views to wake up to. All the mountains were visible and there's only more snow in the forecast anyways. We've got pretty much endless snow. Yeah two weeks and then it's really just gonna keep going until you know next summer. So let us know if you're into winter content because it's my favorite season. Also where we live it happens to be half the year. Literally like there's you don't actually have a choice because like that's all there is accessible really is winter content where we live so. And it's just it's magical to me. Oh yeah you should he's like a little kid. He loves this so much. I just keep looking outside seeing if it's still snowing. Did you see that mountain? Look at that mountain. Look at the trees. Especially with how miserable it was last night with the wind. I mean you saw the snow was like caked on our car. We had created a whole berm around it. It was amazing. And then you get to wake up to there's no wind anymore. No wind. Sun's out. Sun is shining. Going on a hike. Perfect bluebird day. Bluebird day. That's what they call days where it's sunny after snow. Yeah but then it's literally gonna snow again tonight. Oh yeah. But in the meantime I'm gonna go make some coffee and eat a muffin. I'm gonna go to the bathroom because despite there being a bathroom not too far away no way I was walking through that storm last night. You're gonna take your gloves off your feet. I can't get over how creepy that was. Well thank you for watching. I'm sorry just. Oh come on. Look at how he's sitting. Look at that. Well anyways thank you for watching. Oh you're the end of the video. Just your face. Just your face. Thank you for watching our blizzard car camping video. Honestly I enjoyed it. I think it was a little difficult. I mean I enjoyed it once we'd made the food and I was snuggled up in the sleeping bag. I slept great. If you like yeah if you like this kind of video be sure to like and comment and subscribe. Did I do it right? Closer.
