If you\u2019re hitting the road this Winter to the chilly parts of Australia and planning on seeing some snow, you need to be prepared.\u00a0 A little pre-planning makes all the difference for your trip, so here are the most important things to bring when you\u2019re snowbound in your 4WD this Winter.<\/p>\n
Every camp needs a fire, but it\u2019s often particularly difficult to light a fire in wet and snowy areas.\u00a0 The best solution is the Adventure Kings Camp Oven\/Stove <\/u><\/a>which is an enclosed free-standing fire with an extended chimney.\u00a0 The fire is kept off the ground so it can burn all night. It is also fully self-contained which is good for enclosed fire only areas.\u00a0 The long chimney directs smoke away from camp and out of your eyes, which is particularly helpful when you\u2019ve got little kids running around camp.<\/p>\n Cooking on the Adventure Kings Camp Oven\/Stove<\/a> is easy too.\u00a0 Simply monitor the heat and airflow with the adjustable flue damper. \u00a0The Adventure Kings Camp Oven\/Stove<\/a> features an open top that is ideal for fire cooking and boiling and a flat top section that is perfect for fitting two pots or pans.\u00a0 It\u2019s the best way to cook in the snow.<\/p>\n The whole kit weighs 10.5kgs and packs up to small cylinder and can be moved with ease with the convenient carry handle.\u00a0 It\u2019s the ultimate warmth and cooking solution for your campsite in the snow.<\/p>\n Every experienced 4WDer relies on a recovery kit<\/a>, and the Hercules Essential Nylon Recovery Kit <\/u><\/a>contains everything you\u2019ll need for hitting the road in the snow.\u00a0 A good recovery kit<\/a> essential for slippery snow conditions, which can be very dangerous when you\u2019re not adequately prepared.\u00a0 Every 4WDer in the snow needs the Hercules Essential Nylon Recovery Kit<\/a>.<\/p>\n The kit includes: All the components of your Hercules Essential Nylon Recovery Kit<\/a> have been individually tested for your safety and all store away neatly in your Hercules Winch Dampener<\/a>, keeping everything together in one easy location.<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve spent much time in the snow, one thing you\u2019ll know for sure is you need a really good sleeping bag to keep you warm in the chilly temperatures.\u00a0 The Adventure Kings Premium Winter\/Summer Sleeping Bag <\/u><\/a>will keep you snug with it\u2019s combined 500GSM rating of it\u2019s poly cotton canvas exterior and soft flannel interior.\u00a0 It\u2019s perfect for both summer and winter camping with removable layers, so you can camp out in the snow, or bring it indoors and take out a few layers to adjust yourself to the right temperature.<\/p>\n Each Adventure Kings Premium Winter\/Summer Sleeping Bag<\/a> spreads out to a large 2.4 meters tall & 900mm wide.\u00a0 By purchasing the Left and Right<\/a> zip Adventure Kings Premium Winter\/Summer Sleeping Bag<\/a> you can combine two sleeping bags together to make a giant sleeping bag, perfect for couples or singles who like a bit more space.<\/p>\n When deciding your camp options in the snow you have to consider a roof-top tent<\/a>.\u00a0 Roof top tents<\/a> keep you high off the ground away from cold wet snow.\u00a0 The Adventure Kings ‘Kwiky’ Pop Up Roof Top Tent<\/u><\/a> is ideal for Winter snow conditions due to it\u2019s ABS PVC plastic roof and floor which will act as a shield from falling snow.\u00a0 Once unfolded the 320gsm Canvas will keep you warm and protected from the weather outside.<\/p>\n The Adventure Kings ‘Kwiky’ Pop Up Roof Top Tent<\/a> erects in seconds, which means you\u2019re not out in snowy conditions spending a long time in the cold, struggling to erect an intricately designed tent. Also the \u2018Kwiky<\/a>\u2019 is very comfortable, measuring 1100mm wide x 2080mm long x 930mm high and fits a snug 80mm comfy mattress for a good night\u2019s sleep.<\/p>\n Did you know? Our own testing has shown that the Adventure Kings Big Daddy double swag<\/a> has canvas that\u2019s such good quality, that the air temperature inside stays a full 10\u00b0C warmer when the swag is zipped up! It also has a heavy-duty PVC bucket floor which is so waterproof that the swag actually floats on water. That means the damp ground stays outside where it belongs, and doesn\u2019t seep up into your bedding for the night. For added protection, the Adventure Kings mesh floors<\/a> are brilliant at adding a bit of extra protection between you and the cold ground, and the massive added bonus is that they will keep your swag clean too!<\/p>\n
