Question about ski's, I noticed that the snow is packed down where you are, what type of problems do you run into in fresh snow1 to 1 1/2 feet deep?

Fresh snow is better...you can get stuck in extremely deep stuf though....the hard pack is rough and hard on landing gear

Okay thanks for the reply.
Another question this 1 about tundra tires and landing on the tundra, I know from experence that the tundra can be really hard to walk through, I mean to the point that you have to lift your foot straight up before you move it foward or you drag it and fall flat on your face, that blueberry moss I walked through got more than a coupla closeups in 1 mile than I want to remember, that stuff had to be atleast 1 foot thick, how much troubles is it to land and take off in that stuff?

Hi,
Let me know a date next year and I can fly my Tcraft over. I am just west of Ashland, WI. I am taking my skis off as we speak. Should be back on wheels tomorrow.
