I suppose if we're doing videos then search youtube for "jeep jk in water".....that would be me with no snorkel and my manual trans. It's been a couple years now.

I've seen this and thought " how do I get there and do this " lol. Did a great job keeping that wave in front. I also was very curious as to if it was a auto or manual. I am a manual and I am always worried about getting stuck and not being able to rock it.

It's a manual and getting stuck never really crossed my mind since I've wandered through that patch a bunch of times. I suppose I would cut it off, put it in 4lo and start it up (no clutch). The canoes wouldn't be able to pull me out if I got stuck :( though I did push a car out of there once. They float in that level of water haha.

Not deep, but with the added fun of snow.
