Winter Activities To Do With Your TrailRax Rack

Even if you typically break out your TrailRax gear only in good weather, your roof rack and accessories are fully built for winter use—snow, ice, and all. TrailRax is here to help you keep the adventure stoke going year round. See our ideas below - let us know other ways you use your roof rack in the winter!

SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING
Mount any ski clamp rack or ski or snowboard box to your TrailRax roof rack using the included hardware. Compatible brands include Yakima, Front Runner, and Kuat, making it easy to carry your skis and boards securely and make more room inside your rig for more friends on a powder day.

SNOW WHEELING
The ultimate winter adventure for overlanders! Load up firewood, warm beverages, and hit the trails to tear through fresh powder in style. Maybe bring some MaxTrax just in case the trail is a little too deep.


SLEDDING
From toboggans and tubes to trash can lids, strap your sleds to the roof rack and load up the whole crew—because sledding is always better together. Check out our selection of tie downs and bungees.

ICE FISHING
Bundle up and hit the ice! Your TrailRax roof rack can carry all the gear you need for a successful ice fishing day—fishing poles, portable shelter, auger, heater, cooler full of snacks, and more. When your rig is loaded to the brim, a roof rack with ROAM cases gives you the extra storage you need to make the most of your day on the ice.

SKIJORING
Want to try something daring? Tie a rope to your rack and tow a skier across snowy trails or parking lots. It’s a fun activity if you have a skilled driver and skier—but TrailRax is not responsible for any injuries, so play safe in the next snow storm!

CHRISTMAS TREE HAULING
Deck the roof rack! Hunt for the perfect Christmas tree—whether in the forest or at a lot—and strap it securely to your roof rack for an easy, festive haul.

WINTER CAMPING
Some of us prefer not to freeze while we sleep, but winter camping with your rooftop tent, mounted with Trailrax tent mounts, creates unforgettable memories—peaceful scenery, large bonfires, wildlife sightings, early-morning ski tours. Bundle up, fire up that diesel heater, and cozy into your setup for the ultimate memorable winter adventure.
