[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 147846, member: 3373"] You don't necessarily need 2X4, you could use 2X2 and save a little weight. Insulate with styrofoam and their is less weight and won't get wet like batt insulation. Pulling on skis will depend on what type of terrain you are going to pull it over. The rougher the terrain the harder it will pull. Using 2X2 with OSB nailed (prefer screws) would be stiff enough. A couple of 2X6 on the bottom for skis would work in most cases i would think. I have found that 4'X4' is large enough for one person, 4'X6' fits 2 better. [/QUOTE]
