Shackleton the Van!Shackleton is a charming and warm (on the inside), stealthy (on the outside) rig for two campers - AND your furry friend!At 18 feet long there’s plenty of room to move around without being difficult to drive or park (in fact, the backup camera makes that easy). It’s tall enough for 6-foot-plus adults to stand up comfortably without having to hunch over. Full insulation keeps it warm even in the winter.A composting toilet with dedicated fan provides the essential amenity when you need it and is out of the way when you don’t.Plenty of storage space means you and yours can bring all the gear you need for you adventure - skis fit in the “garage” without a problem and bikes can live inside the van.A 300 Watt solar system and separate house battery means you’ll likely never run out of juice for lights and charging devices.A big window in the kitchen provides plenty of natural light during the day and plenty of lights at night keep it cozy after dark.Swiveling passenger seat provides flexible seating options inside the van when you’re eating, relaxing or working.A Huge retractable awning provides plenty of shelter from the sun or rain wherever you are.The Diesel engine gets surprisingly good gas mileage (up to 20 MPG) so you won’t break the bank driving to your destination.A sliding Dometic fridge offers plenty of space for all your goodies without draining much power from the system.What's included- Basic kitchen utensils, pots and pans, cutting board and cutlery.

My name is Scott and I live in Portland, OR with my partner, our dog and two cats. I'm an avid skier, mountain biker, hiker, camper and traveler. Some of our fave places to visit are Astoria on the Oregon Coast and the Southwestern US when we're looking to explore a bit further.
