Driving off-road in the snow can be an exhilarating experience, and an excellent way to get into some gorgeous scenery during the winter months. Yet for many people it can also be little intimidating. We put together this guide for new off-roaders who want to go play in the white stuff this winter, but don’t know where to start.

We have compiled a list of our favorite gear for winter. We have tested and tried our winter gear through many rainy days, snow, extreme wind and some beautiful bluebird days.

The Ocoopa electric hand warmer is one of our favorite staples in our winter gear closet. It is small, rechargeable (making it environmentally friendly, yay!), long lasting and most importantly oh so warm and toasty.

When it comes to extending your outdoor lifestyle into the winter months traditional layering techniques will only get you so far.
