Another great adventure captured on film. Makes me remember why we do it. I grew up in Colorado and know that snow wheelin is a different kind. Chains or cables are nice to have. Some people carry big bags of sand to pour around the tires when stuck on thin frozen snow or ice, but large bags of cat litter work better. It actually absorbs many times it's weight in water and provides traction!

Great video!! 👍. Your not crazy! People ask us the same thing 😂. As long as you layer correctly you are good. We've done 2 snow camping trips to Bishop and they were amazing. Temperature dropped to 27 with light snow in December. We just finished doing Jawbone canyon inspired by watching your jawbone video 😉. We camped at Landers had the whole campsite to ourselves. There was snow at the higher elevation not too bad.

It would be interesting to see the equipment used to sleep in, and what enclosure and temperature inside your enclosure was. For example, sleeping bag rating, tent/vehicle inside temp low was, any wind, cracked windows/ventilation used and effectiveness. And what clothes worn for a comfortable sleep: thermal underwear rating, insulated flannel shirt, sweat pants, coat, hat, etc.

Hey Tom! I use a DeepSleep air mattress inside the Jeep. 😃 Temp inside was... cold! But overall, with just regular sweats, socks, long sleeve t-shirt (with undershirt), and a beanie on, I was totally good. My sleeping bag is (comically) just a Walmart special... flannel bag without much of a rating. Sleeping in the Jeep is pretty insulated, and body heat helps regulate the overnight comfort. When it’s above about 40 degrees, I’ll crack the window for some circulation and use the DeepSleep window screens. When it’s below 40 degrees, I’ll go all windows up and I’ll use the DeepSleep circulation fan inside just to move and dry some air. I’m not sponsored by DeepSleep, just good stuff from them. Check out my Rubicon x Bronco video, and I show my whole setup. 😃 Thanks for reaching out!

@@TrailNewbie I am in Vegas so most of my exploring has been within 2 hours. Goal for this year is to start going to the more remote middles parts of Nevada and Great Basin. within 30 minutes of Vegas you have Wheeler pass and all surrounding Spring Mountains trails which get a good amount of snow during winter. Mormon well road in the National Desert Wildlife Refuge tons of exploring. More than 200 miles of trails in that area. About an hour away trails around lake mead, Gold Butte backcountry byway , you can take this trail to go to other byway trails into southwest utah or into northwest Arizona and the cities/towns in those areas. the entire middle of Nevada has so many trails that lead to all the ghost towns and Great Basin national park. Eastern/Northern Nevada has great trails but haven’t been able to get out there much. You can find great overlanding trails that will take you in and out of surrounding states like California, Idaho, Oregon, and Utah. Most of Nevada is uninhabited and trails go everywhere. You won’t be able to find a soul out there. TrailRecon had a nice video exploring just a tiny section of Nevada. There’s also the iconic Mojave road which starts and goes through the most southern tip of Nevada around laughlin I believe.

Been up rock creek ourselves to try and get up Bald in deep snow... beadlocks at super low PSI and 37+ tires with super low gears is about the only way to stay on top of it. If you havent seen Matt White's 1950s Ram Powerwagon beast in the snow you have to.... that thing eats trails for breakfast. But really, snow wheeling can be super tiring. Check out Iron Lakes up behind Bass Lake in the snow and Moonrock also behind bass. Head up Sky Ranch road to get in to that network of fire roads.... Was just up there late last night to help with a recovery (we were too late, but had fun midnight wheeling in the snow) as always great job with the video! Hope to see you out there sometime kzitem.info/news/bejne/y5eizXpnb1-JeXY
