Isn't Williston near the oil fields and since housing is scarce for the workers there are campers everywhere? <br><br>Welcome to the forum!

&nbsp;It might be a little hard to get away with it since there are so many oil workers and a lack of housing. Walmart kicked everyone out. Maybe you could pay someone to stay on their property. Good article - <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.businessinsider.com/youve-never-seen-anything-like-the-williston-oil-boom-2012-3?op=1" target="_blank">http://www.businessinsider.com/youve-never-seen-anything-like-the-williston-oil-boom-2012-3?op=1</a><br><br>&nbsp;Good luck!

Maybe check on city-data.com. Last I read, even parking w/o hookup was oh dear god expensive.

I was in Williston last winter in January for 3 weeks&nbsp;and never even entertained the thought of stealth camping. I didn't think there was a need. With my rig it's out anyway it's a class B that says "Hey, I'm sleeping in my van" pretty loudly. I never had any trouble at all. Kripes I seen "C's" parked in parking lots and on the streets. People sleeping in cars and what-not too. I don't think you'll have much trouble unless your doing something stupid.<br>Right now I'm in Parshall, ND (90 miles from Williston)&nbsp;working and have my van parked at the company equipment yard plugged into their pole; so life is good.<br><br>I don't know where your from but if you plan&nbsp; to be there this winter you better double up on insulation, propane &amp; heaters. When I was there sleeping in my van in January it was in the -20 somethings at night for a few nights.<br><br>gus
