Have had my 2007 Alaskan CO since 2016, but have not done any winter camping. Plan to do so starting Monday, going to the cold country of Montana. I know I can leave the propane refrigerator running when traveling by cracking the window open a bit. However, I do not think I can run the heater and HWH while traveling? If that is the case, it seems I could not have water in the tank or leave liquids in the camper when travelling, or I would risk freezing them? Any insights from experienced winter campers appreciated, thanks.

We use a small 12volt ceramic heater while traveling. Draws very little voltage. Sealing and insulation the camper is key. I also have the heater on a small switch just inside the door. It is controlled by 2 snap switches. On at about 35 deg f and off at about 50 deg f. Heater is placed in a protected area under sink. Takes up very little room.Putting it in this area has it close to water lines.
