  • We were going to do to Slick Rock as an easy last trip of the year but then it snowed! So instead we went to Bald Mountain outside Fresno which happens to be at 7500ft and guess what, it was covered in snow! So snow wheeling it is! It was my first time ever snow wheeling and I had a blast! The 4Runner did ok but it would have done better with a front locker.

    Luckily your in the snow, that's probably the only place those junk milestar tires work halfway decent

      Wow, I ran them and didn't get any traction on the rocks, once they got alittle wet they just spun, im glad you like them maybe I just had a bad experience with them, im running Goodyear Kevlars now and so far so good, happy trails brotha and be safe out there and STAY DIRTY!!

    You being stuck is it due to those tires? I've been thinking of grabbing a set for the snow.

    • @MechanicalAdventures

      I wouldn’t say that was the only factor. I was the only one there without a front locker which makes a huge difference in snow. As far as these tires in snow goes, I’ve heard mixed reviews so I can’t really be helpful

    Awesome videos, I watched all of the 4runner videos tonight. What are you shooting with? The footage from Rubicon was amazing. Gopro or?

      Yeah GoPro 9. Works great in a lot of scenarios and less good in some others but pretty versatile
