[QUOTE="Callem'In, post: 150386, member: 1222"] I have made 5 trips to Big Windy over the years and every year I have a better way of doing things. A lot of broken items came back with me. Rods are always in a hard side case (Frabill) because of broken rods in a soft case. Destroyed a vex gens box that exploded in my otter sled, A couple of big buddy heaters came back in pieces, Destroyed everything plastic on an Eskimo auger engine (Eskimo was great and sent me replacement parts at no charge, Busted welds on an auger flight (again Eskimo was great about it), Too many little things to list. A local last year told me to put anything you don't want broken "on Suspension" (mount to your sled or atv). I am in the process of building a rack for my sled prior to the march trip! The only thing that has not broke is my Otter Lodge! That thing is a tank. I have seen a hub or 2 flying across the lake with people chasing it on windy days. Our group does bring a few hubs as well. They can be a real pain in the ass to put up/take down when the wind picks up. [/QUOTE]
