Bog Holes FROZEN OVER! Australia’s toughest 4WD track made WAY tougher - do we make it through?

We promised... and here it is! Part 2 of our WILD 4WD adventure in Tasmania holds nothing back. We pushed through huge muddy bog holes, massive ruts and then it SNOWED - that's right, 4WDing Tasmania's toughest tracks (like $1000 track and the Coldstream river track) in the SNOW!

Shauno seems to be more in touch with having good brand name tools etc. Graham on the other hand is a bit more old school and just uses whatever he has laying around in his shed. Agree that they should invest in at least a good Stihl chainsaw. I’m surprised shauno didn’t bring his Milwaukee one.

[@ninjadragonblade]

always love watching you guys but i must criticize something, i am an amature at 4wding compared to you guys but my one up on you is i am an expert rigger and you guys do not a double line/snatch block pull as often as you should. the few times i have said to myself watching your videos. "thats gunna let go" iv been right all but twice which honestly i put down to luck. a slower pull is better then a snapped rope not to mention it will help the life/motor of your winch as well. im sure even you blokes can agree that using anything at its capacity will wear it out quicker. single line pulls work best when you just need that little oomph but mud has too much suction and paired worse when pulling up a rut/incline. that aside, love what ya do and i learn plenty from ya

[@rollinrat4850]

Ive got my grandfather's 50 year old little Homelite chainsaw. I can almost always start that little beast up. I've only needed to rebuild the carb once. That little chainsaw has helped keep us warm below freezing, get through rough trails and smoked hundreds of pounds of salmon as well ! I think the trick is to always empty out the fuel when you're done sawing. Even though I have a newer larger electric saw, this little stinker will always be in my tool box! I love all my Grampa's old tools. There's something special about tools handed down through generations!

When butane is cold, it's only necessary to invert the canister to get its condensed fuel to drain into the line. (It also doesn't hurt to warm it up a little before it's used.) But shaking continuously isn't necessary. Definitely leave the Homelite at home next time! You won't need three or even two saws if you carry just one REAL saw. Glad to see someone was smart enough to have an axe on hand. A few hours chopping wood won't hurt anyone (except maybe Graham lol)
