Took her out camping this weekend with friends. Handled awesome considering they're only all season tires (Pirelli Scorpion ATR). Any fun outings you guys have had this winter?

 

 

First, had to dig the trailer out from the side the house..

That doesnt look like very much fun :lol:

 

We havent had much snow at all here. 1-2" here and there. Not even enough to fire up the snow blower. Its only a matter of time before we get blasted

I would be afraid to do winter outtings in alberta . last week it was -36 C with wind shill that feels like -46C. and if your truck was not pluged in with a battery warmer you run the risk of it not starting and basically being stranded and alot of places dont have cell serves

HAHA yeah fair enough. In southern BC.... it hovered around the freezing mark where we were camping.

How did you manage to stay warm?

 

 

Good clothing (base layers, etc) good gortex boots, toque and gloves. Hot packs in a cold-rated sleeping bag was toasty! And a large fire and some whiskey ;)

Does not take much to keep warm if you are wearing the right stuff . I am more scared of wind when its cold . Blows all your heat away from your body . ps I prefer rum appleton

Man...am I jealous.

 

Had my 4x4 since October. Today it was 65 degrees. My best hope to engage the 4WD is to find a dirt road and a large mud puddle.

 

Rats.

We do pretty much the same thing every weekend in the winter except at the ice shack. Gotta love ice fishing!
