Winter camping in a BigFoot 1500 8.2 Truck Camper

Recently I read a lot of posts on winter camping and some say you can use water in tanks and some say not to. I am planning on making a trip to Yosemite Valley or Sequoia's at the end of Dec-2014. ...

Mtn lion,

Big Foot campers are well insulated and Yosemite (esp. the valley) and Sequoia usually don't get all that cold. So I think you will be fine using your built in tanks.

Some tips:
- Don't leave a hose outside with water in it.
- Keep your heater on and, if really cold, leave cabinet doors (really doubt you will have to do this though)open at night.
- Crack open a vent and window to reduce condensation.
- Bring along a shovel, chains, and ice scraper.
- Have fun.
