Extreme Snow Truck Camping During a Winter Storm. Overlanding In Snow.

Agreed. Music is good at times though. Love hearing the sounds of rigs blasting through snow!

As a women into cars I agree with these types of videos. Although informative I would've liked to hear more sounds of nature/snow and engine. I wish I could off-road my crv would need a lot of work to do that

[@naturebeats2902]

Is it reliable?

[@graememckay9972]

I love snow wheeling. Nothing beats going out and pushing the limits in a 4x4 and coming back with your rig cleaner than when you left

[@hotshtsr20]

Especially the tires. Basically look brand new (other than the rock gashes and chunking) when done

[@FA7X]

[@steveswann8448]

It’s nice to see your shop efforts being used on the trail. You could do more of these and I don’t think viewers would complain. And, the NO MUSIC portions were a nice change.

There is an extra sparkle in your smile when you’re wheeling in the snow.

[@anulfadventures]

My friends and i used to have a cabin in the woods miles from anywhere. Winter was the best time because no blackflies or mosquitoes. The most exciting parts of the weekend was the getting in or even out again through the snow. Your video brings back all those precious memories when men were men and four by fours ate snow.

[@hazyhuckleberry]

The disco vids are what brought me to this channel years ago, and will always be my favorite. So happy this one got filmed.

[@gxor4x4]

Snow wheeling in the PNW is one of the best things I've found. It has completely changed things for me. It's one of the few things that let's me fully be present. It's hard to explain until you get out there. Love the content buddy. Hopefully this season is incredible!

You should bring the rover out to winter romp in Maine in February. I know it’s a haul for you but it’s definitely your speed man

There might not be anything better than rolling up to an open gate. Makes my dream of the days of the 80’s when none of the forest roads in this area were gated. A true playground for the guys of that day.

Me too!

[@kurtludwig6962]

When I was in Jr High my family when to Seattle worlds fair in a Series IIA Land Rover we decided to go see Crater Lake. It was paved road with fresh powder. We were first to go up in morning. The snow was above the stock Rover bumper and stayed between the snow fence post every 40 yards. We stopped at lodge and totally surprised snow plow operator who spent the night. Nothing like your trip but pretty neat especially with the snow plow driver explicit remark. “How the heck did you get here this morning and don’t start down for 45 minutes.. it was still snowing

[@DirtLifestyle]

What a great memory! My early travel memories were in Europe in the back of my Dad's Datsun king cab lol. We called it Dan the diesel. It would have been a lot cooler in a Series 2a lol.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Man snow sketches me out so bad but I REALLY want to travel in it more. It’s so beautiful. Thanks to videos like this I can experience vicariously. Super sick adventure my man. That powder looks amazing

[@DirtLifestyle]

It was a great trip! Snow should sketch everyone out and It needs to be respected like the Desert. If you don't bring the right gear, you can definitely die out there. BUT with the right gear, Preparation and team of friends it's hands down one of my favorite environments!

[@TACTICALNOMAD]

Snow, just as sand or any other backcountry terrain needs to be respected. You should always have the proper gear, knowledge and training or you can definitely die out there. With: 1. The proper gear 2. Preparation 3. A team of others, that you know and trust (if you're not experienced, you should not travel alone.) it's hands down one of the best and most enjoyable elements in which to adventure!

[@bsg2580]

no tire chains for anyone?

[@TACTICALNOMAD]

@@bsg2580, tire chains do nothing in the kind of snow in this video. Tire chains are fine for packed and slippery snow on maintained road surfaces, but are completely ineffective in deep powder. They would only serve to dig the vehicle in deeper and get it buried.

Nobody else doing these snow trips regularly. Love it. Great trip.

[@TreeLovinAdventures]

I really appreciate that you show you were able to do that with KO2s. Everyone bashes the KO2, but I feel like a lot of those people do not fully appreciate the driving skill to use them to their full potential. We ran them for years snow wheeling in our basic build offroad vehicle. Yes there are better tires for strictly snow wheeling rigs, but for an all round overlanding rig, the KO2 does a fantastic job in snow aired down, and driven properly.

[@DirtLifestyle]

The KO2 is the best snow tire in the US because of 1 main reason. Size. I've seen other snow specific tires that have better technology. Specifically, 3d siping. BUT at the end of the day, tire size matters... alot! Firestone makes a tire that has an unbelievable tread pattern, 3d siping, and other tech that I would love on my rigs. But the biggest size they make is a 35 in that tire 🤦‍♂️. I've tried a bunch of different tires in the snow, and I have found that the 39x13.5 r17 ko2 is the best because of the combination of size and a tight tread pattern. Everything else this size is too aggressive to hold onto snow. And everything with a better snow pattern is too small for our trails. But I'm hoping to see some more competition in the big a/t space 😁. Because when tire companies compete, we win.

[@TreeLovinAdventures]

Grew up in Central Washington and now live in N.E.Washington at 3000' elevation. We didn't have big tires maybe 33", ran some crazy homemade chains too with our rigs and I had my trustee warn 8274 with steel cable. Ahhh that was snow wheelin' back in the day!

This video brought back so many good memories of when I was young. I grew up in Vancouver, B.C. and my buds and I all had 4X4's of one sort or another: Land Rover 88, Willy's station wagon, CJ5, GMC 4X4 Panel, Jimmy's, Blazers, Broncos, Ramchargers and the odd Toyota. We loved to do the same thing, go drive up one of the local mountains as soon as the snow started and go as far as we could. No cell phones, no Sat phones, just a CB radio and a whole lot of determination. Loved your video and consider me subbed!

Keep it coming man.

[@graydonkinard396]

Thanks for making this video Nate! It was absolutely awesome and it’s making me think about finding some snow this year

[@wdrdiyman1674]

Suggestion: mount a light, but sturdy, plow V-blade on the front of the lead vehicle. Set the height of the bottom of it about two inches lower than the bottom of the lowest obstacle on the underside....bottom of the differentials. On the move, the blade will clear away any snow which could pile up underneath and high-center the machine. Clearance of the top of the snow with the blade would also prevent build-up in the steering gear as well. Just a thought !! Have more fun !!!!

[@jeepindave5464]

Robbie needs to get that xj finished. 😂

Hope this is practice that you will continue with. Amazing what good insulation does isn't it. Also amazing is how far tire technology has come, back in the days of bias ply tires you would have been hard put to do what you did on those tires that you have now.
