Coldest nights

What is the coldest night/nights you have spent in your travel trailer? Just wondering.

25 degrees was our coldest for one nite only

We have a hybrid, 18oF at night mid to upper 30's during the day, not winterized, boondocking for 5 days we kept the thermostat turned way down. Lots of good blankets. Open underbelly, never frozen up.

It is common for us to camp with overnight lows into the low to mid 20's. Usually we will have an electric site.

We were in northern Georgia last year and a cold front came through, it got to 17degrees and we ran out of propane at 3:00am. Time to pack up and leave. Got to the next campgrounds filled up the propane tanks. Lesson learned.

19° several times. We had a furnace running and disconnected the city water. Pump worked just fine until the hose thawed. Should have disconnected and drained it.

About 23* near Bryce Canyon NP, Utah. Disconnected city water hose before going to bed. Furnace inside kept everything fine. Kept cabinet doors slightly open under sinks just in case. No problems.

Negative 8* f. 12 years ago. Deer camp, late youth season new years weekend. Forcast 2" of snow, got at least 9". Fleetwood redwood high wall popup. Boots froze to the floor 2' in front of the furnace.
The things we do for our kids.

Tent camping 20° a few times.
Pop-up 30°
TT 30° (first time having it out.)

Ironically the most uncomfortable was after I should have know better. We were tent camping in Big Bend and brought our big tent to be more comfortable.

Forgot thick air mattresses get really cold. Our backpacking pads would have been warmer. Learned memory foam pillows freeze solid until your body temp warms them up. Learned in the desert that higher elevations are warmer. The heat was rising into the Chisos Basin and that campground was about 15° warmer than down at Rio Grande Village.

10 F in an older travel trailer. Furnace didn’t work. Ran 2 electric heaters. Had heavy blankets. Stayed warm enough. I’ve been colder in a pop up when it was in the mid 20’s. This doesn’t include tent camping times.

Jayco 210QB. Enclosed Belly.

18/19 degrees 2 different times. Before the front hit, I Filled fresh water tank, disconnected and drained city water hose. Dual propane tanks. 2 Small electric cube heaters. I had the propane thermostat set to come on when the electric heaters could not keep the camper at a set temperature. This was about 10 degrees cooler than what the electric heaters were capable of doing. Propane only came on a few times during the night.

18-19F is the coldest in a travel trailer or motor home.

Recently caught the cold snap down south in our Rockwood A126 Aframe camper. We managed to stay warm but had to drain the water two days before we left the campground as the nights were getting into the 15F range.

Our feet were pretty cold in that little camper when on the floor. No insulation at all.

We look forward to picking up our new Jay Feather Air 15mrb Monday. I'm sure those temps will be much more comfortable.

-20 at night -5 in the day was about 5 yrs ago deer hunting in MN with my old camper. My new seismic I have only been down to 0 degs with
