Jeep Dies At The Worst Time! Deep Snow Recovery
In this video, we document the incredible recovery mission of Bruce's broken down Jeep Wrangler. Stranded on a snowy mountain road, unable to move due to mechanical failure, options are limited. But our team of expert off-roaders were up for the challenge. With the help of specialized equipment, including winches and tow straps, we set out to recover Bruce's Jeep. The journey was not easy, as the heavy snow and steep terrain made for dangerous conditions. But with skill and determination, we were able to successfully drag the Jeep down the mountain and back to safety.

My Patreon group got early access to watch this video! Join here: www.patreon.com/thestorytillnow
Love the new logo!!! ✌🏻
@@RobertSmith-lw2bx I like the old one, oh well.
I usually start to watch it on patreon then watch the whole thing on KZhead.
@@leemen I get the email notifications, watch the first part and then end up watching later on, usually after dinner. With some cold beers!
This group is Gold !! They did a Self Recovery from super difficult conditions and were chill. Love it !!
Thanks!
I don't know about you, but when stuff gets REAL I go calm and am hyper-focused. It's a problem, and I'm going to solve it. One of the few times in life that all the gears in my brain start running smooth as F.
"try going forward" are words to live by. Appreciate that you show the bads and uglies of going out wheeling - shows that you've got to be prepared and willing to make it work!
Thanks! I think when things go wrong and we have to improvise, that’s when the adventure really gets started. 👍🏻
I try to keep it comical, much like Bruce.
Great vid guys! I have saved a few people's lives that were stranded in the bush one family was stuck for 3 days and was glad to see me. Got them out and escorted them back to the road.
Good work 👍🏻
Nice work.
I have no idea why you don't have millions of subscribers! Your videography is absolutely spot on! Great work!! Got me hooked!
Wow, thank you!
Nice! Literally my backyard. Can get there with less then 2km on pavement!
Safe to say you guys most likely saved that guys life. Well stated. We don't have that type of snow here in the southeast USA, but this type of content really shows how awesome our jeep community is. Great work again. Thanks from jeepNdirt.
I'm happy you finally got out here to Kelowna to wheel with Bruce. You can learn a lot from him in how to wheel deep bottomless snow. One thing to keep in the survival kit is to have a HOSE CONNECTOR for every size of hose on your vehicle then some hose clamps to match and some fluid you are back on the road and out of the bush. Great film and drone work Shawn , really captured the moment. That Belgo dam route is awesome round trip route if you get all the away thru. CHEERS AND SAFE TRAVELS Steve h.
Awesome job Shaun
This is why I love this community! All for 1 and 1 for all!!
Ansolutely
This was the most incredible recovery I have seen. That's a tough break for Bruce. Hope to see that Jeep back on the road soon
Already fixed. Easy peasy 👍🏻
@@BruceCookfmx That's awesome to hear! Hope to see more videos with you guys! Cheers
@@BruceCookfmx Gold to hear ❤️
Finally a Kelowna video!
That looked like a lot of work, but good on you all for teaming up to get out!
Thanks 👍
Damn, brother. One of your best videos. This was awesome.
Wow..this was like a PSA video for..THESE ARE THE REASONS YOU DONT WHEEL ALONE!! Great job guys..that was no joke.
Nice work!
I’ve started bringing snowshoes when I go snow wheeling!
I’m going to too
Awesome video that shows the good, the bad and the ugly of snow wheeling. I got cold just watching it!
2 steps forward, 3 steps back. Great video.
On the trail failure always sucks. Not being able to fix it sucks worse. Being with friends makes it all ok.
Yay! Great video! Extreme teamwork! Lucky ass quad guy!
honestly, you may very well have saved that dude's life.
I'm sure that was a life saving encounter.
Bro this was EPIC !
Still Jealous. Love that 426 sound. 🎶. Fun video
Great video! Having the right equipment when off-roading is a must good job guys👍
You have the best music in your videos! Great job, always an amazing adventure with you guys!
Awesome team work
Another great vid, cheers
Best Overlanding stories!
Love these vids! I used to snowmobile when I was younger, but this is much cooler! Thanks!😊
A bit of a pain, but looked like a good time with good people! Glad to see your lockers working!
Epic rescue - buddy- support - exfil, nice work!
I think he said "that's true I'm lucky" but "I'm lightning" cracked me up lol
That could be it. I honestly couldn’t make out what he said 😂
Sean it's good to see you got the lockers working again brother, keep the snow wheel in videos coming the best part about snow wheeling is the getting stock and recovering part blowing transmissions and blowing motors and things breaking that's the oh s*** not so fun part!! Keep the videos coming brother look forward to them every Monday!!
Great video! So glad I found this channel recently. Loved the attitudes of all involved. Doesn’t always go as planned. Being properly prepared and having good spirits got everyone home. Good times!
Awesome! Thank you!
Attitude is always the difference between a bad day and a great day. 👍🏻
Great episode !
As always great show and I thank you for bringing me along in hoodie form 😅☝️💪🏻the snow is just so peaceful
Glad you noticed haha
What a hell of a adventure!!! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦🇨🇦👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Awsome adventure !!!
Good stuff guys
Another great video om this awesome channel. Thanks for sharing. Shows good teamwork and team sprit in the group. Good that you brought the Jeep back safely. Keep on snow wheeling, it´s awesome.
Thanks 👍
Awesome video, Shaun! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Awesome fun guys. Fantastic shots from the drone! Love watching your videos so keep them coming. Greetings from Las Vegas, NV.
If everything went smoothly, what the hell fun would that be? Part of the fun is tackling the challenges that life throws your way when you're on the trail (or not).
Awesome video. Sorry that happened to the jeep. But what an adventure! Love snow wheeling. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is a perfect example of why you go out with "Friends".
Awesome 🤘🤘🤘
That looked like a brutal and miserable recovery. Well done dude.
Went just like planned. Could have been a lot worse
@@BruceCookfmx 🤣 But also true...could have been worse.
"hi5, namaste" incredible video buddy!
Holy hell, Bruce is awesome… wish he brought the Chevy!
Another great video ! I cant believe how deep that snow is! ⛄️. Also, a great Recovery of that quad runner.... i hope that guy was very grateful to yall ?
VERY!!
Awesome video!! 👏👏 heck of an adventure!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Now that was a “Epic” adventure and a winter video we love watching from you. I’m totally jealous, our Ontario winter has been a joke, it keeps melting away, no snow to play in.
Thank you, John!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Brutal, but as always one hell of a video.
First time viewer and I must say, the cinematography here is top notch! Excellent trail recovery as well!
Thank you very much!
Feel free to check ALL other videos, you will be blown by the quality, entertainment, scenery, videography... Shaun is great on all of those!
Another great video and awesome teamwork getting out at the end of the day. Hopefully the Quad guy gave you a few cold ones!
He was to busy warming up, and getting home. We were just happy to help.
Good times had by all...
Great video, even the great Bruce needs help sometimes. Bruce has helped out so many others and is one of the most inspiring guys out there. 250OFFROAD would love to join alone next time as I’m based in Kelowna as well.
Шикарные места и съемка очень хорошая!
OMG!! You're crazy pal!!¡
Hey Shaun, You are not that far from me down here in Kettle Falls. Wa. I hope you are on your way down to the states. Great videos! Just found your channel. Here’s to the next adventures. Cheers
Thanks for watching!
Great video .. looks fun bit learned my lesson long time ago blew the transmission in my xterra snow wheeling in upstate New york close to 3 grand later I will never snow wheel again . Good luck .
Freakin Sweet!!!
Nice save of a hell trip
Good video editing, music....all in all great work! You have new sub!
Thank you!
@@TheStoryTillNowwhat song is that at the end?
Nice! Really shows the value of going with buddies and having gear to recover!! #JTRSPARTACUS
I’ve been watching you for a while now, I find that the general atmosphere of the snow videos are different than the deep rainy valley ones. Really like the videos
Thanks
Won’t be the last. Shaun has too much fun with us
Hey guys. I just subscribed to your channel. You may not read my comment but in case you do I want to tell you that you are one of my favorite Channel to watch. The editing is amazing, professional. I don't personally know you but I appreciate the level of professionalism. I own a rubicon with extreme recon package. Nothing close to your rigs. I live in las vegas and had completed one of many trails here named rocky gap rated a 7 . Keep up the good work You should visit here sometime. Many trails nearby, including toquerville falls and sandhollow utah only 2 hours away
Awesome, thank you!
I think it would be an interesting collab with DDE to see what their H1 can handle on your trips, but I’m not sure it’ll hang with those Jeeps! Lol
Would love to find out 👍🏻
Awesome!
Thanks!
wow I wouldn't wish that failure on anyone's ride but it sure as heck makes a great story. Keep up the great work!
Thanks!
This is the story till now!
Nice video
Man, what an adventure! So... The person who cut the trail only wide enough for his ATV is probably the guy you guys rescued 😄
It takes more effort to cut the tree full width of the road. If you were on an ATV, I don't think you'd be putting more effort into it than you have to.
Awesome
Never met Bruce when he came to GF Strong to visit one of the other patients. Seems like a positive guy, if you guys do Kluskoil Ive got a property on Yimpakluk you guys can use it as a jump off point. Im in a chair also since 2015. Ive got a lot of stories from that area. Including Dead Red lol
Very cool! Hopefully I can hear those stories sometime. 👍🏻
Blew a transmission seal on a solo day trip, up a logging road. Walked 23 km in slush n mud before getting a ride back to tge closest town. NOT fun. The wolves, the wet slush, the heal blisters; worst of all worried family. The buddy system works
Sean all they need to do is put a snow plow in front of your trail destroyer and you could just be a plow seriously look at that thing with your locker's fixed what a beast you were in snow as high as your front bumper and you are just plowing it like a snow plow no problem!! V8 power is a must that's for sure..
It seems to me, that if your snow wheeling, it might be a good idea to add snowshoes to your recovery gear. ;) LOL Great video. Shows how important it is to travel with friends and help for recovery.
Actually something I’m thinking about.
I’m surprised Shawn doesn’t have them. I have a set but have not used them yet! Great vid. 😎
I had two pairs. We just didn’t have much time
@@TheStoryTillNow I also noticed no one was using chains. Is that just not as fun for you guys, or a weight management thing? I got stuck on a pretty snowy/icy spot when hunting before, and my chains saved my day. My buddies where about 50km away, it would've taken quite a while for help to arrive. LOL Anyhow, just curous, looked like a long day for you!
Awsome 😊
Just got my "The Story Till Now" hoodie in the mail, love it! The wife is already jealous lol.
Thanks for the support!
@@TheStoryTillNow Absolutely. Deliver better quality content then majority of Netflix shows for free!
sweet!
Great video, love the drone following shots!! what drone do you film with??
👋🙂That was quite a challenging adventure, and with this vlog, it will definitely serve value to someone that may find themselves one day in the same predicament. 👍💯👍💯👍💯 KUDOS to you all for saving that man's life, seriously 👏👏💯🙂GOOD DEEDS
I guess it's time for that snow plow attachment to take shape!
Sometimes you don’t get to choose your flavor of adventure
The waist deep snow.. memories of Squamish, lol
Absolute scary situation. So typical people would I know would not be prepared to camp out conditions where you’re and that’s why you should always go with people that have very capable rigs… plus talent
Another awesome snow-filled adventure. Great footage. What camera is that?
Ronin 4D
Holy cow 🐄 😳
HAHAH Glad that camera didn't fall in the snow at 6:59 :)
@storytillnow. Hey what gloves do you have? Yellow with the soft fleece on top part??
Yall wanted to do some snow wheeling well there ya go lol
Is everyone at low pressure on beadlocks? I saw someone using Method bead grip wheels in a previous video and wondered if you had experience with those at very low pressure.
Do you mind if I ask what type of radios do most people use these days for communications, CB,GMRS,FRS ? Thanks for the reply. Cheers Great vid by the way.
We’re all using HAM
We need some footage of your Axail Gladiator. 😊
I’ll bring it out next trip 👍🏻
Shaun. I saw you putting fuel in with a jerry can. Have you looked into adding the long range America aux fuel tank. By the way what kind of mileage do you get when you are not using it as a snow plow
I had one of those tanks on my old Gladiator and it was great. Unfortunately it won’t fit with the hemi exhaust.
Shaun There is a modification you can do to the LRA Tank to make it work. I have a picture, Can not figure out how to post up here so I messaged you on facebook.
Do you only have mud terrain or snow rates tires ? What do you think about running MT on snow ?
What intercom system do you use?
