long story short, really wanna send it and start a bus to rv conversion to be able to stay in it for nights straight, wake up and go straight to skiing wherever I am. Absolutely new to this, and wanted to know if anyone on here that’s done somethin similar has any tips on the subject. Finding places to park for a few days at a time, specific mountains on the east that are/aren’t easy to do this typa stuff at, etc. thanks y’all!

Although a bus has a certain degree of coolness to it, I’d definitely recommend looking into a truck camper. A bus just isn’t going to be as practical imo. More gas, less maneuverability, less parking choices, less reliable, etc.

Also not that I’ve spent much time on the east coast, but I would think you would have a much better time out west

All you need to find overnight parking spots is the app park4night.

100% doable. But you’ll quickly learn it’s a constant game of hide and seek. Ski towns don’t love rv’s boondocking all over town. And the cops will knock on the door and make you move. Plain, no window, work vans make the best in town campers. No stickers. No gear boxes on top. Some even put ladders up top for the ultimate “in plain sight” camouflage. Stay stealth, stay warm and dry, and you’ll be good. Planet fitness black membership for the occasional shower.

Ifn you gotta ride, buy trailer, build out to your liking
Cheaper
Easier to unhook and drive the truck
Bus is obvious, trailer low key

6x10, bed, kitchen, storage no bathroom
