That's where Im going in less than a week. How thick was the ice? How do the operators get their guys to the huts? Or is it walk to your own hut type of arrangement lol.

A typical sled/atv is about 400-600 pounds, that Jeep is at least 3500 pounds. A sled with 2 guys and gear still weighs less than a 1/3 of the gross weight of the jeep.

Well I bet it was a LOT cheaper getting that jeep out than my buddies C185 in Timmins yesterday !

 

 

 

What's the story there? That plane looks to be on wheels.

He was going cross country and got into icing conditions. With his wings loading up with ice he had no choice, either land or be landed! He broke threw the slush crust into 18" of surface water. Got off pretty lucky, other than the helicopter recovery it will cost him a prop, engine tear down and a lower cowling. Thankfully it never went over on its back.
