The Buck Hoodlum's digging capabilities and an improvised icebox are also demonstrated. Due to Time Calorie Energy (TCE) limitations, other planned activities like snowcaving are postponed. The video concludes with a quick review of the Jansport Carson backpack used for the trip, highlighting it as a valuable piece of gear. The series is dedicated to Ron Hood.
