He used it on the 2 km of open lake trail and it made it like a park walkway. He used it in the 3 km narrow windie trail off the east end of the lake. It scuffed up a couple of trees but the bumpers moved the grader over. Lots of tree wells and slight side hill.
Vikki moved the post about the trail grader just below this post so that you could see the pictures.. We also have a bunch of photos of every step. Bryan figures it cost him about 300. to make plus his time. Remember it all had to be take apartable so that it would fit into the Beaver Bush Plane.
Bryan will be making up a blue print for our friend Don. We might ofter it for sale on this blog if anyone is interested in making one up. (Maybe a PDH file or something)

The best ideas are kept in our heads .I'm glad that the Trappers trail grader worked out :)
Way to go Bryan!! I'm very happy that it worked out so well for you!Nice job.
So this is for creating a better trail? for you to run your sleds on?
BTW just finished day 1 of the Trappers Certification course today!
I've always wondered what tye of trees do you guys have there just small spruce or is there some big sitka and cedars and firup there
Trees here are small, medium and big balsam spruce plus some really big Cottonwood. A few Jackpine and Aspen. It's all a mature forest with lots of blow down. You can't go anywhere without a good chainsaw.
