A little bit of snow is not going to stop us from going camping. We recently had our first huge snowstorm of the season in the Cascades, so I did what any sane person would do and packed up my rig to go snow camping. We had around a foot of snow on the ground and I had a blast driving through the snow to get into our campsite. Camping in the snow is always a blast. Winter camping is one of my favorites because of the lack of bugs (and people) and ability to get your the best camping spots out there.

We spent a winter camping evening chilling (quite literally) in the snow, eating some walking tacos, and enjoying cigars by a roaring campfire.
Camping in the snow with dogs just makes everything more fun...until they discover discarded animal remains...
When you can't have a motocamping adventure, nothing beats snow camping in a 4Runner instead.
