Like the coat where'd you aquire it

[@gearheadted5110]

When Cody says "Ah shucks, I'm not properly geared up ", he's already carrying ten times the number of items that the average guy normally carries into the back country.

[@theshapeexists]

Im blown away at the amount of stuff this man can afford. Im doing well, but this guy is killing it. Teach me

[@tcasex]

youtubers make tons of money...look at what whistlindiesel and others with similiar numbers can afford...except he doesn't waste it on that, he buys into being prepared.

[@Idahoprepper71]

Get yourself a successful KZbin channel with 2.5 million subscribers and you can afford all this stuff too.

[@ryansheppard21]

I feel like you guys are downplaying someone who has worked INCREDIBLY hard for over a decade. Even if youtube pays 2-3¢ per view it takes so much money in equipment; knowledge in filming, editing, and lighting; and the government works hard to take 30%+ of everything. He also is a full time father/husband and has to maintain his ranch while doing all of this for us. We are the blessed ones to get to watch this stuff. The statement "you tubers are rich" seems negative, liberal, and gereralizing from someone who is jealous.

[@jimmylarge1148]

@@njerseydavidhe also had money he EARNED before youtube asswell

[@OXFOOT]

Not every KZbin makes a ton of money, I'm sure he does very well though. Remember that everything you buy for the channel is a tax write off, and some things get sent for free. Fulltime youtubers probably put in more hours than the average 50 hour a week person but it's fun work so the pay makes up for it.

[@gregoryaashley]

You are amazingly prepared. One suggestion, consider keeping your tourniquet more accessible. If you need it, you may only have a minute or two to apply it. You also could be injured or stuck with limited mobility. I carry mine in a pants pocket. Love the channel. God bless you and yours.

[@SmokesKwazukii]

tourniquets should also be visible ideally if someone else needs to apply it to you

[@carlzirk]

My heated glove option today was holding the tractor muffler. Worked great.

[@AndyMacBG]

[@jolkraeremeark6949]

I can't help but wonder what the incredible cost is for going into the backwoods "prepared".

[@jeremydoblinger3609]

The snowbike storage gave me the fizz with the voleo straps and fuel bag.. very sharp setup

[@willland387]

beloved brother - you need extra pair or two of wool socks - dry feet are so important - they can be good for more than feet too. Get some wool socks in there.

[@chadhagans6687]

Heated bars?!? Ok so thats the thing that got me this video. This guy literally has everything. Honestly is there anything you don’t have.

Cody having watched a lot of your videos I know you don’t go anywhere unprepared 👍

[@Corndog4382]

Man. I thought golf and skiing are expensive. This is another level. Sounds very fun though.

[@teebob21]

Being prepared for life to happen is a price worth paying. Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.

[@krobak47]

I’m so grateful for this channel and all of this info. Thanks Cody

they mention it because they care. you will come back . and bring anyone who needs your help . god bless you and family . good luck to jack .

[@moopiemoopie]

We need a backcountry snowbike video!

[@JohnnyTwoStep89]

I know one of his early videos addressed his disdain for the "must be nice" comments but damn. No amount of budgeting or eating in or canceling monthly subscriptions would allow me the extra money to afford any of that.

[@simonstevens5406]

Excellent Cody, you are a great teacher on being well prepared for any eventuality in the mountains 👍😀

[@nicko4071]

I guess I’ll just have to stick to messing around in my garage with axe handles….

[@toptornado23]

Very nice setup and great preparedness. On the other hand it’s a great example of how dependent man has become on “stuff” in every aspect of life when compared to our ancestors. Comforts and convenience has eroded mankind’s ability to survive without a dependency on “stuff “….this is not a knock to anyone, I include myself in this category. 😢

[@EC_ATV_Outdoors]

I ATV, and this is what happens when you experience issues. Not necessarily you, but you see an issue and the kit expands. And then you know when you do have an issue, you'll get through it.

[@thatdoyleguy]

Others have said it, and I'm going to agree. Its very wise to keep that tourniquet on your person as well. If you need it, you need it quick. In the army, we kept it on us when on mission, and we also kept it prepped and pre-looped so you can put it on with just one hand.

[@gripzer0166]

This is a very capable man from his knowledge and experience alone with tools. Won’t go into the back country like most noobs, Ppl voice their jealous. he’s doing his thing ✌🏾

[@johnnyadams1755]

If I had the cash flow, I still couldn't think to buy all this stuff. And this is just one of Cody's hobbies 😮

[@theeagle8652]

Hard working proho. He is worth every gear he bought. Cody is a beacon in this world.

[@zdub770]

You should put a little piece of sandpaper with the steel epoxy stick it’s hard to get to stick sometimes if it’s to smooth

[@G.I.JeffsWorkbench]

Good on you (I guess) for making this video. At the end of the day, it’s up to you to do your own risk assessment. No one can do this for you. Similarly, no one can (rather no one should) criticize your judgement, since it’s your life you’re protecting. Like they say, “haters gonna hate.” I suppose that even the haters have the opportunity to learn from your detailed explanation. Perhaps they will.

[@Harps555]

Great pack. Only thing i would add is a jet boil and 2 refills for it. Will fit in that pack no problem and can help melt and boil snow for extra water in case of emergency or freezing and will last a long time . And if you have the space could also throw a couple packs of top ramen in there for emergencies or just some warm calories.

[@haybloomer]

Random question because it’s been years and I’ve forgotten names. Anyone else been here since the dozer/wood forge/ fresh p days?

[@michaelwhiteoldtimer7648]

Yes I have since before he moved into his other house

[@alfredocarpaneto5976]

I find it hilarious you carry an extra shifter. I broke a shifter on my dirt bike down by Moab in the middle of a hail storm. I was stuck in second gear trying to outrun flash flooding.

[@burningneutron6884]

I saw the video. All I would have had on me was a water bottle and maybe a snickers. And the water bottle would have been filled with tap water.

[@L2FlyMN]

I’m glad for you to have gotten into a fun sport such as the snow bikes! 😃 I’m still old school sledding, newest machine, a 2005 600, oldest a 1993 580 special vintage, now replacing the rubber carb boots on it, the recoil rope & rubber safety shut off plug two years ago. 😝 The older the machine, the more wrenching it requires to keep them going. Not a fan of having to wrench on things, especially when obsolete & parts are harder to get ahold of!!! 😑

Anyone else wondering why Wranglerstar has not gotten into Hestra gloves? They are Swedish, quality, appealing to the eye. Seems like a perfect fit.

[@naui2]

I was just looking at random gear on Amazon after watching this. Somehow, I came across night vision goggles and I thought of you. You should do the cheapest night vision goggles vs you're bad mamma jammas?? Might be cool 😎 Thanks for the gear video!

[@DrXarul]

I may not agree with your choice of music, but I sure learn a lot regarding some unique equipment.

[@scottmackenzie8071]

It really hits my ocd hard when everything is the wrong way in the background

[@xtphreak]

Yeah I'm watching him say left hand when he's holding up his right hand, throttle hand and he's holding up his left hand. But I didn't let it bother me too bad, cuz I'm pretty sure he knows the difference between his right hand and his left hand lol.

[@Trad-Am]

New heated Google brand,Tempest optics, the heating is in the frame, along with the battery, so no delicate wires from lenses, and they run off sensors, so they don't run all day, you fog up, they turn on, and back off. Battery lasts at least 12 hours, with usb-c charging in the goggle frame, no bulky external battery pack

[@tokyosan7906]

Impressive gear and set up! How do you pour the 1 gallon bladder? It looks like it would disastrous to try and freehand.

[@larion3296]

Very impressive! I can only imagine the real time and money required putting this equipment together. Did I miss the traditional compass? GPS is not 100% reliable.

[@thetexianpatriot2201]

He mentioned map and compass at the end of the demonstration he gave of his Navigation preps.

Your last snow clearing livestream recording was pulled at about a little over the half way mark, while I was watching. Screen just suddenly went grey and "Video Unavailable"displayed. Any explanations? Did you pull it, or did You Tube?

[@ryefry]

I can't remember how much channel crossover you like to do. It would be a distance but I'd love to see you crossover with Outdoor Gear Review, he doesn't take sponsors at all and tells people how good or bad products are. But he's on the East Coast, i think SC.

[@funkingfuss9724]

Thank the Lord that you can afford all this equipment. You are truly Blest to be able to purchase all of this. i am just curious what the total cost is to be so well prepared. .

[@Tatanasty813]

Is the snow bike better than a traditional snow mobile? I don’t live in a snowy area. Is it a different experience? What’s the point? As someone who knows nothing about snow it seems like a lot of work switching that machine over every year.

[@THX5000]

They are better at side-hilling. (Traversing across steep slopes) A traditional deep snow mountain snowmobile will have more power and do better in deep powder. Personally, I would just buy a proper snowmobile if I had the money because that is what they are designed for. Dirt bikes are not really designed for winter riding.

[@JonnyG0969]

Its a challenge and more if a workout like moto- cross. Must be in superb physical shape to ride steady for any period of time.

[@joshua8937]

[@tak2w]

Hey Cody, you probably already know but your FB page looks like it has been hacked. Someone is posting obscene videos on your story on FB. I know this has been happing a lot lately to people like you with lots of followers. Unfortunately, others have had a very difficult time getting Facebook to fix it.

[@ChrisMason.333]

Man I have a 3.3G / 12L tunnel can for fuel and lately we’ve been each bringing up a 5L standard jerry can full of fuel to leave trail side and top off before we head up to to alpine/backcountry and our rides can still be cut short by not enough fuel and making sure we make it back to the truck. Snow gets pretty deep here though I’m about an hour and a half from RevelStoke.

[@JerichoLindsey]

Ever think about vacuum sealing the down and thermal layer?

[@backpackerx]

Just curious why you and many other KZbinrs mirror image your videos? I'm sure there's a reason but can sometimes be confusing when you refer to your right side or left side and it's the other arm. Keep up the great work!

[@ChrisJastram]

What's up with that capacitor compressor. How does that work? What do you mean capacitors stay ready when you need them? Did I wake up in a different world all of a sudden?

Actually the Beacon brand does matter, as some avy beacon manufacturers, like black diamond, and pieps, support closing the backcountry to motorized use. BCA is motorsports friendly!

[@hondolane3125]

I'm not sure if you are doing this for a reason, since you have been a 'Tuber for a minute. It's a little wonky when you have scenes filmed/edited reversed. It's much worse when you make reference to right/left, as you did with the inflator handle on the avalanche pack, which is a reverse video scene. Or maybe you just wanted more comments about that, in which case, well done.
