H2 Winter Recovery/Survival Kit
 

Hi all, long-time lurker, first-time poster.

Winter is fast approaching, and for some parts of the country its definitely here. What would you all put in a H2 winter recovery/survival kit. I used to pull people out of ditches with my Durango, but I'd like to get a new set of tools for the H2.

So whats in your winter H2?

Ken, where do you hide all that in an SUT? ;) I especially like the defibulator, I could use one of those for the kids.;)

Re: H2 Winter Recovery/Survival Kit
 

:beerchug: Nice set up! On the left wheel well it looks like you have a Yellow Pelican setting in the bin. What size is that? and did you make any mods to make it fit so well?

Cheers! Pray for Snow! :jump:

Condoms.

Re: H2 Winter Recovery/Survival Kit
 

Great info, Thanks.

Re: H2 Winter Recovery/Survival Kit
 

Thanks!.:) ....Couldn't find a # on the Pelican, And No Mods were done!...Just a good place for the SAT Phone. ;)

Water is great to carry but in the winter it tends to freeze overnight. I have found that distilled water doesnt seem to freeze as soon as tap water. Dont know why, but it seems to be true.
