  • In this video we head up to Steven's Pass on Highway 2 in Washington. From the East side of the pass we enter NF6700 and push through to Lake Wenatchee. The snow was as good as it gets for October.
    Tires are Hankook Dynapro AT2

    I live in Minnesota and running with the locker on in snow causes more issues with sliding the rear end than anything in my opinion. Just straight 4wd or 4 low has been the best for me. The only time I use my locker is if I have the two drive tires on ice.

    I have a 2004 f150 4x4 with a 6 inch lift and 35 inch off road tires . If you are going to four wheeling you have it set up for that. I been in snow trails just like that and worse and it's a piece of cake. What I am saying is add a few things to your truck and you won't have to work so hard or worry about getting stuck. Still good video.

      They are called "traction boards" the brand in the video is Maxsa Innovations, but I don't recommend them. A better cheap option are the Bunker Industries ones from Amazon. The fancy ones are Matrax.

    Really let down by most offroad videos. This one is decent but I was bummed out when you got stuck in 5 inches of snow because you chose to continue turning, not going far enough back or using momentum. Was disappointed. Go ahead and pick up snow chains from les Schwab too. Good video overall thumbs up 🙌

    • @simpleinstinct
      @simpleinstinct  3 роки тому +1

      If you mean in the beginning of the video, where I pulled over to let the other vehicles by, I could not go forward where I was.
      Reason I have not bought chains yet is because I'll be changing tire and wheel size soon.
