Winter driving needs some extra attention, special skills, and lots of patience. When ice or snow is covering the ground, the first thing to remember when going somewhere is to have plenty of emergency items with you. Blankets, coat, flashlight, flashers and standard items such as a spare tire and jack are items needed in case of car trouble. Bottled water and snack items are also a good idea to have in the trunk or glove box in case of long waiting hours for help.
When it comes to driving on ice, the rule of thumb is the slower, the better. Be in no hurry.

Here are just a few tips to keep you safe on the off-beaten path.
First, you need to do some preparing. Knowing how your vehicle works and what it is limited to is very important. You need to know what your vehicle is capable of, and stay within that range. Understanding your 4X4 system is equally important. Also, make sure that you are aware of your approach, ramp, and departure angles. This will help ensure no damage is created to your vehicle.
Become familiar with the feel of driving your 4X4.
