Camping in a winterized TC
DW thinks camping in our winterized TC (without running water, operable toilet, etc.) would be too much of a hassle. I'm more inclined to give it a try. Comments? Tips?

Good suggestions.
I'll add these.
Try to keep condensation mopped up, and to a minimum.
Add some loft (blankets, foam, or sleeping bag) underneath you while you sleep.
Insulate your exterior compartments walls that are also your living space walls, the crank up roof vents, and windows.
Insulate under the floor with foam board. Add a rug.
The blower on the furnace will kill your battery fast, really fast!
There are many options for a auxiliary heat source.
(Buddy heater, Olympic Wave 3 & 5).
Unless you have access to a 120 volt source for an electric space heater.
The only other thing I do different is we use bottled water for brushing teeth, washing up, cooking. Small easy to pack and 12 bottles can really go a long way.
Bucket with a trash bag for toilet, or the other obvious options that are avalaible. And baby wipes.
Nothing goes down the drains period.... till spring.
Try it, have fun and get back with us with what worked for you.
