First two pictures above are from the first trip this year at Pigeon Lake in Alberta. The next pictures below are from our trip to Canmore, AB.

I towed it 30 miles home on flat intersate and it did fine.But im worried about going over the 5000' passes around here. the trailer dry is 5600lbs at the cat scales.I figure about 1000lbs more wife and myself and gear. Thanks for any help!!!

Here we are just out of Custer State Park, SD in road construction. 10 miles of rough, muddy, rocky, steep, dusty, dirty road. They had to have a lead vehicle to bring each string of vehicles though the construction zone.


Here we are atop the Bighorn Mountains, WY. Powder River Pass. 9666 feet of elevation. One hour of 2nd gear, 3500-4000 rpms. Engine and transmission temps topped out at 224 degrees each.
