Keep on ride'n JG Trailblaze, they are two 20 liter cans, the range depends on the conditions as you realize, with a 12.8 gallon tank on the yeti, and the 10 gallons in the cans we count on a range of 230 miles to 300 miles range. The back case is not weather tight, but is large and you can put several dry bags in there. The cover opened up two days ago after dark as we were riding, in first time that has happened, tow rope ended up wound up in the track, not good, 30 minutes of cutting to get that out! Note to self, put bungy cord over top of cover. I have a new 2013 yeti coming, if It ever come in, snow checked but still not delivered yet, kind of defeats the purpose of snow check?? Today we head north with the five of us, we will be carring the fuel on the yetis and also pulling 50 gallons on a sleigh. This is the group riding today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida Snowman Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Unreal reporting & posting RoadRunner!! Thanks again for sharing. Have a great day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizz Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 This is some of the best early reporting i've ever seen! Keep it coming please. It is very much appreciated, way more than you might think, for those of us still stuck in snowless places. From all the reports it pretty much seems to be province wide so the season should get off to a very good start this year. Hopefully those that depend upon it for a living have a great year. I'm tired of seeing places closed or burned down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadRunner Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Our trip today was north and east of auberge 31, we made a 220 mile run up to on the Pipmaucan, east of where we were earlier this week,, our coordinates today were N49 26.820 w 070 25.814 a nice camp and dock on the reservoir, this was our destination today Today it was 5 of us and as I said earlier, we brought our fuel sleigh with us. we had a great variety of riding conditions from packed trail, to powder . Plenty of snow in this area, and the snow that is being packed down by the groomers and sleds is setting up nice and firm, below zero F temps have helped this greatly Great going here with fuel sleigh in tow I had to try out the cat turbo, wow! nice power and really nice breaking a track on this road this am Time to fuel up NH Vector fueling up his yeti today Hambone running the Free ride in the powder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
