Things to Note…
Up North Adventure Vans are equipped with a solar panel and battery bank to enable off-grid camping. As such, our camper vans do not include a TV, microwave or oven because of their significant power draw and space constraints. The camper van has air conditioning when driving and when parked/camping, there are two roof fans (front and back) for ventilation. The camper van is fully insulated and includes insulated window coverings to keep the camper van both cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
Our camper vans were thoughtfully designed to give you adequate storage for longer trips. Upper cabinets are on both sides of the bed and there is a bulkhead shelf above the driver/passenger seats. The bench seat contains storage and there are hooks on the wall for jackets. The “garage” space under the bed is accessible from both outside and inside of the van.
To travel is to change the clothes of our soul.

Hints for Packing…
Pack less – you can go to a laundromat.
Roll your clothes – it uses less space and they are more accessible.
Pack in a soft sided bag – not a hard sided suitcase.
Pack warm clothes even in the summer – night temps are cooler.
Don’t buy all your food at once – pick up groceries as you need them.
