Snow Kit?

The snow is on its way! (if it hasnt already hit your area)

What kit do you keep with you at all times once the white stuff hits?

I was thrown in the deep end (literally) as Jersey dose not see snow every year and i wasn't prepared.....

My Jimjam is always fully kitted out with recovery gear, shovel, tools & first aid stuff, so I'm always prepared! Unless I leave it in the garage leaving the undrivable beemer in it's way that is!

Kirkynut

stick some michelin pilot alpins on the bmw then it wont get stuck

it depends where i'm going in the snow,

when i know its coming pretty bad, i back recovery gear, ( spade shackles strops axe saw etc) and they stay in my car nearly all of winter,

if i'm just driving to work i'll have some spare water a snack and a spare set of clothes ontop,
if i'm heading out into the moors to see how far i can get in the snow, i have about 2 days worth of tinned food maybe a couple of sarnies, 2 pairs of clothes extra coat extra jumper, and what ever else i feel fit to take before i go,

i only go to that extreme when i'm pushing the car deep in the middle of the moors to see where i can get to, i've been stuck 19 hours in my car before in summer and that wasnt nice, so i try to prepare the best i can for being stuck in the snow

If it's as bad as last year I will be leaving the jimny and going back to the defender as it's better suited for getting hey and rations to the sheep mostly as it's a pickup but also it has proper recovery points front and rear so if I do mess up it's easier to get the tractor attached to it. But it is not going to snow, its too much of a pita and the sheep don't like it.

I keep strops, spade, jump leads, lamp, spare bulbs ect in the car all the time, they're in a bag so if I need the space I can just chuck em in the shed. In the snow il stick an extra coat and some wellies in, if I'm going laning then a flask and some grub, with a can of fuel aswell. And a phone charger! Would hate together stuck and have no juice in the phone to call for back up haha
