    Hey guys! Just wanted to give you a heads up that I would much prefer for this comment section to be less judgmental and patronising than the previous one. You can rest assured I am fine - I’ve been travelling solo for 6 years , including to countries most people consider to be the most dangerous in the world; I’ve driven from Mexico to Guatemala to Belize to Alaska (yup); I’ve climbed the tallest mountains in Antarctica, in Africa and in South America; and I am very cognizant of what my dog’s needs and wants are and can recognize by his facial expression and body language is something is off.
    So, please, let’s all just take a deep breath and enjoy the journey. Appreciate you and see you in the next episode!

    Windshield wipers on frozen hiways. Canadian truck driver here. The best piece of advice I can give you is turn your defroster off. Your defroster heats your windshield so the snow melts against it, but it's cold enough 1cm away that it can refreeze. Wind chill at 100km/hr at -5C (60mph, 29F) is -50C. Turn your heater to blow down and keep it warm enough to be comfortable with your defroster off as much as possible. The snow won't melt and stick to and clog up your wipers, also won't freeze them to the Windshield when you park.

  • @ShaunSpaeth
    @ShaunSpaeth 3 месяца назад +23

    Some of the things I used to do to help against all the ice issues with wipers when I was a long haul trucker: blast your defroster as hot as you can with your windows cracked (so you don't overheat inside the cab lol), that way the ice can't accumulate so much on the windshield. Also, adding rubbing alcohol to your wiper fluid reservoir can help keep the ice at bay, although that doesn't always help since I'm sure it will be getting cold enough to even reach the freezing temp of alcohol where you're going. Honestly, you can never truly prevent the ice buildup, but those couple of tricks certainly helped in my travels. Good luck to you in yours! Thanks for all the awesome content and optimism through the years! 🙂

      Drove a taxi in Finland for ten years, ice accumulates to wipers only when it's like 0 > -2c - or you're just driving too slow in the cold!! XD There's a hint of truth here, if it's cold enough and you have enough speed, the snowfall flows over the car without sticking! And no worries, our windscreen washer fluids handle temperatures down to -60c. :D

    Altitude compared with Latitude
    I'm smiling here. I'm 75 years old. I grew up in Colorado; a lifelong outdoorsman, skiing, snowshoeing, hunting and fishing. Where you are experiencing traveling through the various life zones governed by what latitude you find yourself; from the Temperate forests to the Boreal (Taiga) forests which transition into the Tundra and finally the completely frozen Arctic / Antarctic zones where little or no life exists. Anyone who lives in or uses the Colorado Rockies for recreation, travel through the same biomes which are defined by altitude, not latitude.
    I know all to well, the same problems you are experiencing with your vehicle! It's good practice to have redundant systems or replacement parts for systems you rely on to stay alive.
    Good luck... You are well prepared, well seasoned and resourceful. We are following your travels closely and praying for ya!

    Eva, while I am enjoying your “Frozen” episodes, I hope you understand how difficult this particular journey can be. The dangers of being in very cold weather for prolonged periods can be profound. So far you have been rather lucky and I hope that your luck will continue to be there. The difficulties with your batteries getting low is a reality of very cold climates. I would recommend that you have an extra battery installed within the heated part of the truck to insulate it from the cold. If you can’t get your truck started the risk for you will become very severe. I do of course hope that everything will be fine and it will not be necessary. Just remember how things worked out for the crew of the Endeavor. One of my favorite quotes is from Sir Edmond Hillary when asked how his adventures were going and his response was “ An adventure is what you have when everything goes into the Crapper, I prefer to have an expedition” Expeditions occurs when you are well prepared for every possibility. Do have a great expedition. Kindest Regards, Your Pal Al.

I thought I would share one tip about the super frustrating frozen wiper problem: It's counter-intuitive, but once you de-ice it in the morning, clear the moisture , then leave the heat off and let the windshield stay cold and it won't continuously melt and ice up as you're driving. Hope this helps!

    Out of all the crazy expeditions Eva have done, this is not the craziest in my eyes at all. I see her as a pro after doing this for so many years. I don't think anyone needs to be afraid for her safety. Coming with good tips is always great, but it is possible to give tips without making them judgmental.
    It might be because I'm Swedish myself and are very used to a lot of snow during winter (even if i'm not living up in the very north). But as long as you drive carefully and have proper tire, you will be fine. Yes this kind of expedition is not for everyone. But with all things Eva have been doing throughout the years, this is no problem for her.

    I strongly suggest you start talking to locals and learn cold weather skills. Especially for the vehicle. In my article experience we shut off the engine below certain temperatures because the oil and fuel will thicken and never start again. Also below a certain temperature the battery will freeze.

    To prevent a windscreen crack from spreading, you can carefully carve a small circle at the end of the crack; this technique helps distribute stress and halt further cracking. However, it's a temporary fix, and seeking professional repair is recommended for safety.

    I live where there's snow and ice and yes, the wiper blades ice up and yes, I don't like driving when it is snowing or even just snow on the road when I can't be sure where the edge of the road is, but I think for your experience, you are doing a good job. I enjoy your talking and if you were my daughter, I'd be mighty proud of you. I guess I should say granddaughter, being that I'll be 79 in three months. No matter what people tell you about driving in winter, it is not easy. I drive on all season radials, siped, tires and I take my time. I get passed a lot but I don't go in the ditch, so keep it up kid and keep being careful.

    My dad always told me to go with the flow. You will progress so much faster and with a much lighter effort. Seeing how much joy that cabin brought to your trip was the absolute highlight of this new adventure so far, that choice lead to what is coming next on the remote trip... we always have plans of how things might go, expectations, notions ... but in the end, the going is what matters. The more you allow and adapt to the where and what - the more the why falls in place. So glad to see you back out in the world.

    ❤ Yes, cabin rest is precious. When I was bikepacking through Sweden, I also decided to stay in a tiny cabin for two nights to rest from tent sleeping and all the logistics. It was the cutest wooden cabin I’ve been to, buried in the woods on Gotland island. I still remember how cozy it was and how much I needed that rest there 😊

    Loved the parts with Vilk playing in the snow like a kid. Reminds me of my dogs when we lived up North. Freezing wipers is part if life, unless you get the winter variety. Keep it up, and you will soon start to enjoy the cold, crisp snow and the night skies.

We've been going straight through since the pandemic, in all sorts of conditions, in every season. Like you, mindfulness has kept us all grounded and aligned. We love getting out, as you do. Thank you so much for all the effort you put in to sharing your adventures with us.

    You don't need to dig mumma, I built for digging... what a joy that dog is, I love him! I always find on "journeys" that are both mundane and the adventurous, those little break out things that nourish you, make you stronger. Makes sense really. SO looking forward to the next vid.

    Many Winters living in Boston Ma. for 40 plus years, living through the blizzard of 1978 . It's not the Arctic Circle but in a densely settled area it had it's challenges. Needless to say,
    we don't like the cold either. You are a beautiful soul that has more going for you than most of us out there. You are brave and the world is a clear pallet for you to paint on.

    Eva, you're the best!! I love that you have chosen to participate in life and stretch yourself. All those nay sayers are either city folks who have never experienced the wonder of the deep acoustic blanket provided by cold and a meter of snow, or they just refuse to get off their butts. They are the ones who opine from the sofa, not from hard fought experience.
    You go woman, and never let the under-informed non-participants tell you what is right for you.
    I would feel privileged to have your experience along for an adventure. Bring it! May you and Wilk have the best arctic fun!
