I headed up to Big Bear for what’s likely my final winter camping trip of the season — snow’s still on the ground, but with temps rising into the 70s next week, the window’s closing fast.
This video is a follow-up to my recent EcoFlow Delta 2 Max review. As I mentioned then, there’s always gear being tested behind the scenes — stuff you don’t always see in the spotlight. So today, I’m pulling back the curtain.
I walk you through my full winter overlanding setup and reveal three items I’m removing from rotation — at least for now. One of them has been a winter staple for four years (spoiler: it’s not gone forever, just going into hibernation).
Plus, I answer a question I get all the time: “What all do you actually bring with you?” You’ll get the full breakdown — no fluff, just real-world overlanding gear that’s been used, abused, and field-tested.
💬 Drop your thoughts below — what gear have you retired this year?
