I very much wanted to take my dog Chewbacca camping in the snow. I picked a spot that the forecast said was going to get a decent amount of snow and then...nothing. Snow camping is difficult when there's no snow. So, I had to take matters into my own hands...

Come along on a super chill winter camping adventure with me and my pug. Solo camping with my dog is always a great time, even if he did steal my chair by the fire.
We may not have gone snow camping, but we did find some snow when we were camping, and that's better than nothing.
4Runner camping (or 4runner overlanding, depending on who you ask) is comfortable and fun. It's a great blend of being able to bring creature comforts but still being forced to experience the outdoors.
