Sometimes the best trips aren’t about going far — they’re about slowing down. This quiet winter truck camping trip in Minnesota took Toby and me east into the woods to explore a place that used to be loud with work, and is now silent again.

We spent time winter camping in Minnesota, walking through the snow to exploring an old sandstone quarry near Sandstone, Minnesota, before settling into an empty campground at St. Croix State Park. With cold mornings, a warm campfire, snow covered forest floor, and a simple meal cooked outdoors, this trip was about finding quiet and enjoying the slower pace of Minnesota outdoor life.

This video focuses on quiet camping, cold-weather camping, and exploring lesser-known places in Minnesota where history and nature overlap. From peaceful winter mornings to relaxing campfire moments, it’s a reminder of why I keep coming back out here — even when things don’t turn out perfect.

Thanks for coming along with us.


Be kind. Be honest.
We’ll see you down the road.
