How is the Icon suspension? Is it good for high speed and rough offroading ?

I live in northern Japan, and the snow here gets ridiculous. There's a overlander here that has his Delica kitted out nice. The guy even put a snow plow on it. It's crazy seeing him plow through the mountains on his way to camp.

I didn't read your comment about the snow plow my bad.

I learned a couple things from this video... 1. Don't wheel alone. 2. Have a full size spare. 3. (The most important!) Bring a cast iron pan with you!!! Haha! Always happy when you upload a new video. Looking forward to the next!

What really stood out to me on this video is how everyone stayed positive in the face enormous challenges. It is THE thing that makes the difference when in the midst of an epic. Solid group of guys.

That looked like a tough and exhausting couple of days, but you got some fantastic footage out of it!

It was definitely physically demanding, but totally worth it. Also helps that I was in good company 🙌🙏

Hello from Estonia. Everything is so familiar,because when winter comes we know that unexpected things happen.

Great Adventure! With Good Friends! Love The Video! Beautiful Snow!

I have been in the back country hundreds of times and the time with A little adversity are always the most memorable and fun ( although that might be upon reflection). This was a great vid and im sure a great time

If I had to get stuck somewhere, Nate would definitely be on my top 5 list of dudes to have in the group! Lots of struggle, but what the heck, that's what you're out there for, the adventure!

for the hose an insulated sock helps it maintain heat as it travels to you

Totally digging the Mitsubishi van!!!!! What an awesome build!

I would suggest getting a big snow scrapper/brush combo from a truck stop and beat the frost/ice off your tent before closing it. Hope you dried out your tent when you got home.

definitely dried it out at home. There was a big puddle of water as a result initially, lol

Glad to see everyone made it out safely. Seems like short wheelbase and a light rig makes a difference in the snow.

Yeah that Delica did really well in the snow

Love the pan idea as a Jack base

I would not have the patience to constantly stop and unstuck myself out of these snow drifts. Props to you guys!

WOW spoiled with all that heating gear! I did a winter night camp where a buddy of mine thought a Tee Pee would work in -35c (-31F) with a fire being the only heat source, which totally sucked as it all went up and through the top. We made it out alright in our arctic sleeping bags, though I've had better nights with better set ups. Nice off roading and recovery though! That diesel heater is tempting. Sweet Ram as well, I really like the tent!

That was cool; the good, bad, and the ugly. Thanks for sharing.

That looks COLD. The "crunchy tent" in the morning 🤯

To drive in deep snow , in eastern Canada we drive on narrower tires and no less than 32psi snow is not like mud or sand and with narrower tirés you do not float and you do not cut True à large track and the traction is better

A frying pan recovery! Love it!

Edward, thanks for showing in detail your tent set up. Those tips help a lot. Safe travels!

thanks for sharing, these kinds of challenging trips are good to test resolve and determination while at the same time having fun in a beautiful environment. That dudes van is f'n rad!

Finally got to watch this one! Dang! What an awesome trip! Ones like those bring the group closer together - through the difficulty! 👊🏼

There's something to be said for being well prepared, stoked to get into some snow this season. Well done fellas!

Fantastic video! Thanks so much for sharing.

I like this, a good humbling experience is needed every once in a while to show us we arent invincible and it looked fun!

Looked like a great trip filled with some challenges!

This footage is gold !

Nice SIG Sauer brotha! I EDC a Glock 43x mos with a Johny Glock flat face trigger (the best trigger I've use) a Holosun 507k 2X a TRL7 Sub streamlight a Magwell some goon tape. I love this setup because it's so light that I forget I'm carrying and it's extremely reliable with no malfunction after a few thousand rds. Keep up the great content!

What awesome memories you made with some good friends, besides who doesn't like to go out and play in the snow

I saw that Tundra just yesterday in Seattle! Can't miss it with the orange paint and the Icon badging.

I love your videos man, extremely high quality, fun and inspiring

Rachel straps and air are a great way to seat a tire back on its bead if you don't have ether

As the temperature drops so does the air pressure in your tires. Great video Ed 👍. Thanks for going through all of that to make it. It actually looks like a lot of fun though 😀.

Out of Sandpoint, snow gets very deep. Air down.....or chain up. Heavy chains.

Awesome video ! Looked like a real lot of work but fun. You guys handled it well !

Awesome content…. You are so right in everything you say… made the best of it no matter what

Good job

Radical!!!!

Great one ED. back in the 70's in Northern Ohio we would take off our "Monster Mudder's" off and put on our narrow snow tires (we could still use studs)---- but the tires you guy's use are for the best of both worlds-- keep up the great work!

That’s crazy Brother

Great video! If you wrap the heater hose to insulate it your heater will be a lot more efficient. Keep up the adventures.

Love this episode Edward! You released this video right after I got back from a snow trip of my own. I’m going to have to pick up one of those diesel heaters! One thing I’ve learned from snow wheeling a few days ago is that I’m convinced I’m just going to chain up right at the start in deep snow. I have these auto ratcheting chains that are easy to put on, about 3 minutes on / off. I’m 15 minutes into your episode, so not sure if you will use chains on this video, but I highly recommend them. Take care Edward! Hope to get the chance to hang again one day!

It was different not watching everyone eating their camp dinner. It's kind of nice for a change. Did the skillet and bottle jack work? I liked that.

❤sweet! Mitsubishi looks mint! I almost went for an endeavour! Hitting the east coast in a day or two. Hope I can make it out before it becomes impassible. LOVE my beaver dam trail in winter.

You got more snow than we did up here in Canada. Be safe out there!

Currently watching the video on my tv, Had to get on my phone to comment. Good video so far ed. snow is no joke. Especially when you run into ice on the hills.

I’ve seen a couple of your videos. Just subscribed..!!

I have those exact wheels on my Jeep. Guess I will keep them at or over 10!

From 24:30ish - winning!

Y’all just need to weld a woodburning fire stove on a old metal hood sled and just pull it behind you, so when you get stuck, you can stay warm and keep the fire burning as you’re going down the trail lol

chains narrower tires if they dont make them for your 10 or 12 wides another crazy thing some 2x4 and chainlink fenceing

Idk what videoing bug you’ve caught but man lately your videos have been absolutely amazing! The Lord definitely watched over you all out there!

Ed, we all go alone sometimes and it is not ideal and this weekend I found that out in the Cherokee National forest doing a section of the Smoky Mountain 1000. No cell service so I had no weather radar or forcast (which changed after I went in and I had no idea) and things got interesting on day 2. A high wind warning was issued for the high elevation areas which I picked up on NWS radio in Chattanooga. I was out there and committed to finishing the section however, I got caught out in a wind driven storm on top of a ridge. It got so dark I had to turn on my light bar to see. It scared me but I am home and it made me think hard about what happened. No, I didn't finish the section but I will in the spring.

I know that bridge! I live in CDA. Been watching your channel for a long time! Would love to meet up sometime! Just bought my Tundra because of your content and have been backcountry camping ever since!

I'm from the panhandle in Sandpoint ID where I learned about wheeling from my dad. Snow wheeling has always been a part of my life and was wondering where you guys were playing at?

Wow! What an adventure. I hope to learn from you and others about handling such snowy situations. I go deer and elk hunting in the mountains of eastern Oregon and run into mud or snow situations on occasion (though, not that deep of snow - yet!). Keep up with the great videos. Don From Oregon.

Oregon native myself….the one thing I have learned from watching Nate is that wheel spin is not your friend in the snow. I always just hit it hard when I was younger. After following Nate, Edward and the rest of the gang I started trying to crawl through the powder and it’s amazing how much farther you can go with a little patience and finesse.

Taking those vehicles equipped like that is like wearing flips flops in deep snow and wondering why your feet are always wet and why your sandals keep coming off.

How is the vinyl tube off the diesel heater? Some people mentioned melting and bad smell from the hose? A tip for you the exhaust should be always angled down unless you have a drain hole drilled into tube. Many people forget water build up

@KrokemOutdoors

No bad smell so far. I bought a separate tube and it seems to hold up. Didn’t know that about the exhaust!

I wouldn't want a sprinter van a everyday driver but a van has basically know setup which would be nice in cold condition i would thinks, Thank you for your reply .

Great video but more night footage would be perfect! great setup!

Such a good episode! Thanks for showing the things you do inside the tent to make it as comfortable as possible. I'm new to snow wheeling/camping but I look forward to learning a lot in these. Do you have a recommendation on diesel heaters/sleeping bags?

❤ the channel , I have a Ram Rebel myself and I’m going through the process of lifting , tires and rims . I noticed you are running the KM3 in the snow , how well do you feel they performed . So far all places I go to and suggest them keep steering me away when I bring up snow and rain lol

if you wheel in THAT MUCH snow. You might as well get a set of tracks

you need a diesel heater
