EXTREME camping

Camping is one of those things that can divide families. When the word is mentioned, some love it to death, and others flee at full speed to the most remote parts of the house. It’s doesn’t have to be a binary decision, really, because there are all styles of camping.

Many of of us imagine camping as being snuggled into a fabulous mobile home, with all mod cons, WIFI and a Starbucks nearby. Others can envision unrolling a canvas tent, poles at the ready, and just enough supplies to keep you alive out in the cold, cold wilderness that is your nearest state park. As people like to say these days “it’s all good” no matter how you slice it.

But here’s the catch. For some, trailers and tents for for amateurs. As far as those hardy characters go, you either go wild or go home. But we’re willing to bet that the subject of this post’s star, Steve, that kind of camping is for babies.

Meet Steve Wallis, hardy Canadian and serious spelunker. Even sleeping in a car is too cushy for him. So watch Steve’s video about extreme camping. Extreme cold. extreme savings and extremely funny.

You can do this too, if you want. All it takes is some kind of transport, a sleeping bag (ideally waterproof) and being ever so slightly crazy. He is our new hero. We have some less extreme ideas if you prefer. Click here.
