Another ride in Muskeg Country

[Rock Doctor]

This was part of the trip in to our Cabin a couple weeks ago. The trail is getting dryer, and a little easier for the quads. The fall colors are awesome.
No breakdowns on this trip, other than that I broke my throttle cable (I had a spare with me).
Fishing was really good on this trip, but I will post that as a different vid later.
I had to haul a bunch more material in for my new cabin. One load that I had included: 20 concrete bricks, 1 hundred pounder of propane, 1 twenty pounder of propane, 2 five gal cans of gas, and 6 bales of insulation. It's not so much the weight of the load, as how aquard it was.
I got lucky, AGAIN, when I went out to pick up the heavy load a chopper landed by my truck. It was a friend, stopping for fuel, and he offered to fly a load in for me. I had him lift 20 sheets of plywood and 20 2x4 studs in for me, saved me a round trip.

Anyway, I hope you like it. My wife on the quad again, and myself/kids in the Conquest.

Ok I dig the video for sure....

One thing I am not sure of is .....Whats the purpose of the quad? to ensure that the argo has something to push and pull around in deep mud?

Perhaps it is time to ante' up and get her a machine of her own...

Who can't love your vidéo... Your littles girls are so cute, eating and sipping juice just like a ride in a car... Rock can we rent your cabin and a ride in Argo too... You could also make some Argo rides to your cabin, have a lunch and go back... I'm sure you could have a big succes with that... Did i heard that you have two Argo, one 8x8 and one 6x6... If not your wife really deserve one... My wife would have left the quad at the first mudhole and walk back to the truck!!!! Congrats for your vid!!!!!

LOL

I do indeed have a 6x6 for Diane to drive, but it needs a little TLC and for now she is comfortable on her quad. We have been quading into places like this togeather for over 15yrs. She will come around sooner or later.
As for why even bother with the quad...........This is a LONG ride into a remote lake. No other way to get there, other than to fly in. There are only 7 leases on the entire lake, and it's not uncommon for us to go out for a couple weeks without seeing another person. A backup machine, even if it's only a quad, is a comfort. Cell coverage in this area is poor, I can get it at the cabin sometimes and never on the trail.

I can't "rent" out the cabin, but I can let friends use it

Glad you like the vid, I have a pretty good one made of the girls catching some great fish. Probably post it in the "chit chat" forum, since I didn't put any AATV video in it

Later

I love the attitude and disposition your gang/friends/esp the kids have from living in nature, far away from the downfalls of modern city living.
