I'm selling my X4 and now have 2 scouts and 1 Kenai between my sons and I. Wondering what people have done to both store and transport multiple traps. I use a Polaris Sportsman on the ice. TIA!

Here's how we transport our shelters when hitting the ice in a group. First we install hitch kits to front and rear of the shelters, second we cut 2 pieces of PVC 6 ft in length, third we run a piece of rope through the PVC pipe and attach carabiner's to each end. Then we fasten the carabiner's to the hitch pins and away we go.

Hope this helps

I found using 1/4 or 3/8 eye bolts from the hardware store and fender washers with nylock nuts on the flat side of the shack works well


You can't catch'em from the couch.

If we are traveling through slush or deep snow, make sure to put your heaviest sleds in the back. The lighter ones will set a pack and make traveling easier. Also I only use hard hitches to tow a train.
