How far is it from Eagle River to Swan? I have rode From the centre of Alberta stage area to Swan on a tank a few times. I tried to get a jerry can for my sled but they are out of stock so I can't carry any extra fuel with me.
Has anyone stumbled onto clubtread.com? It is a big anti-motor, tree hugger site. The evil opposite of S&M. I was searching for someinfo on the Trans Canada Trail system when this site popped up under"Peace River Trail- Don't Go!", or “more snowmobiler deaths in BC”.What I found was disturbing...
I picked up a set from Cabela's on Sunday $140. They are extra wide and good for 1200 lbs. The only drawback is that you have to assemble them but there made in Canada.
Are you better off to have a kid (6 yr old) in one of those storage box seats or on the back of the quad seat? I did have a look at the Can-Am with the second seat. For the most part it looks to be more for an adult than a kid. I dont think a kid would be able to hang on to the handles. Some...
I am thinking about buying another quad. I had one roughly 15 years ago but sold it once the family started. I have been sledding for a few years now and as the kids are getting older and some friends are buying quads I thought it may be time to get back into it. I noticed that quite a few...

Learned a valuable lesson this weekend. Don't try and ride the triangle trail from eagle river toward swan hills! The trail is a mess and in a few places is impassable . Trees across the trail and worse yet they are preparing for a pipeline or something. Good ride for a quad but just tears up a...
It's good to see that I'm not the only one who brings a ton of stuff! I started with a good quality back pack that was comfortable to wear and then hit Wholesale Sports and filled it up with most of the same stuff as the other guys above. Really just try and bring what you can easily carry that...
We were out yesterday as well. The trails were in excellent condition thanks again to the groomer! I always make sure to buy the season pass and it is good to see more people are getting on board. Compared with the current price of a day pass in Mcbride ($25) per person per day, it is a small...
