Ep. 40: Slow Wheeling or Snow Wheeling, Anker Gear, How-To Discount Tire
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Episode 40 is a full-on rollercoaster. Garrick finally tracks down that mysterious rear-end thud, only to discover a much bigger problem lurking under the rig. Meanwhile, a snow wheeling trip goes sideways with hidden obstacles, cracked wheels, and more trail damage than expected.
Melody shares a soggy lesson in winter tent camping after waking up in what can only be described as a lake, plus some insights on how quickly PNW landscapes can change after heavy flooding.
On the gear side, Garrick leans further into electrified overlanding with major upgrades to his power setup, while Melody deals with a failing power station and pivots to a more reliable solution. There’s also a deep dive into swing-out awning setups, budget realities, and why some of the best gear is still frustratingly out of reach in the U.S.
To round it out, the crew swaps recommendations, from road trip planning tools to unexpected perks like free Toyota milestone stickers.
Broken parts, wet camps, new gear, and hard-earned lessons. Just another episode of Remote Trails Radio.
