When off-roading, the question is not if you will ever get stuck. It’s when. And while those moments may be few and far between, other surprises may happen. If you’re properly prepared, stay uninjured and warm, and keep your wits about you, becoming mired down or having a mechanical issue is no real problem – and may be an adventure you never stop sharing. Being prepared is uncomplicated: a few steps completed in advance and having a handful of equipment and supplies in your vehicle.
Bronco Off-Roadeo director Greg Nicholas takes the community through some essentials for heading out on the trail.
What are your essentials? I've said it before, and I'll say it again: @David saved one of our Colorado trail runs at Super Celebration West (where we filmed this video) with a good cup of coffee. Other great-to-haves include a fire extinguisher -- and believe it or not: chapstick.

All of the items mentioned are of course necessary. Not listed were toilet paper, tire gauge, and a high lift jack.
I always have a Co2 bottle or a 12 volt air compressor. Tire pressure bleeders are nice too, I always air down for off road travel.
Always travel in a group or with at least one other vehicle. Share the fun!
