Dangerous Elevation | Jeep Gladiator VS. Steep Mountain Road in Snow Storm

There's a place in the mountains of British Columbia that is only accessible 2-3 months out of the year due to it's high elevation. The road is narrow and carved into steep mountainside. Even in July we would face snow, and risk sending our Jeep Gladiator rolling down the mountainside with one wrong move.

In India, we've motorized roads available to public upto 5500m, there are other roads around 6000m for defense purposes. Karen thinks her quad bike runs on pure air and nothing else

The scenic views are gorgeous. The video editing is absolutely on point. Keep it up. Best part of this video was when your camera (GoPro?) captured the sound of the snow falling at the lakeside camp. Awesome.

[@matty_o]

Love the footage and the rigs. It is quite breathtaking.Looks like Cruiser didn’t have a front locker. Also as long as you don’t break any branches and all trash leaves with you,it keeps the parks open or years to come. Here in the USA they sometime close some trailheads because of human behavior. I hope one day I can do that in an FJ cruiser at a similar locale.

First off, another phenomenal video. I had also never heard of the 1700 meter law so I was looking for clarification on it as I hope to start overlanding in the Spring of 2021 and found this article on an Canadian outdoors forum from 2016 where people were fined for going "off roading" in southern British Columbia. It would probably be wise to check with your local/Provincial/State or Federal government agencies for current Laws and Regulations. “It is an offence to operate any motorized vehicles off of existing roads and trails above 1,700 meters (5,577 feet) in elevation,” Myroniuk said. “It is also an offence to operate a motor vehicle in a manner causing damage to the environment (at any elevation). This includes mudbogging.” Fines for those types of offense range from $230 to $805.

[@TheStoryTillNow]

"Off of existing roads"

Stumbled upon your channel this morning. Nice job on the editing and cinematography. Will be looking forward to future updates. Two thoughts, 1) can’t you use the drone for scouting ahead? And 2)great example of the need for front & rear lockers, or automated traction control even on “flat” ground, slippery surface and you lose traction. Nice job, and great location.
