My ATV is my All Terrain insulated boots!!  I guess if I really wanted a 4 wheeler, I could go get one, but I like hiking, both going in and coming out.  Now that may change as I get older and the arthritis keeps kicking in during cold weather, but have had to many bad experiences with guys riding right in on closed roads, behind closed gates, etc.......  Just not for me for hunting.

That's the reason I got mine. I have had 3 knee surgery's on my right knee and a few back injury's. I love hiking, but its getting so bad I really need something to help cut the distances down that I travel. Not to mention the thought of packing out an animal. Horses are cool, as long as they are someone elses.  :chuckle:

Well had recently a Polaris 325 (kids), a Polaris 400 (wife's), a Polaris 500 (mine, but kids drove it, the work horse) and still have a Polaris 700 (06) that is spending time in Idaho with a friend... and might be sold too, he wants it.  Riding isn't the same here as I expected, different choices here for me now...  J E E P!,  But oh the good old days of free air time... and lastly my buds 600 Griz he killed....

Looks like a broken tie down on it. Wounder if it came off a trailer or pickup bed going down the road?

Story is we went for a Grizzly hunt in Sept/Oct.  We headed out to the Glacier 30 miles then head to another remote trail an additional 20 miles, fifty miles before we were in good areas.  Anyhow I was leading up this nasty hill and going to try and summit the smaller mountain that we needed to get over and be able to glass a huge valley.  Well about 3/4 up there was a platform plateau of sorts, I stopped and was waiting for him to come on up.  I pulled out my camera took a couple pictures and have some water.  Four or five minutes I started wondering where the heck was he, so back down the last slope to the edge of the bigger hill I just went up.  There he was laying on the hill, I yelled to him and he sat up.  What the heck happened and where is your machine, he just pointed over the hill.  Oh crap!  He wasn't injured at all, alittle shaken and nothing but pride and wallet injured.  So, over I go in low range down the steep hill, wow didn't realize how steep it was till pucker factor hit on the way back down.  He stated the machine hit a large rock I must have tore up and did a straight back flip, machine right over him.  Nothing he could do.  (He is an extremely advanced riders for those questioning or about to question his abilities...)  The machine went 10-15 flips and stopped just short of a serious cliff, one more flip, it would have required a team to get that machine out.  Broke his 10-22 Grouse getter, no damage to his bear gun in the Koplin Scabboard (recommend one for everyone), crushed GPS, survival gear beat up, bino's destroyed...  All plastic trashed, both axles bent bad, all metal cages destroyed, handle bars crushed.  No tire damage.  We hooked the winch up and pulled the handle bars back straight, bent some of the racks out of the way, cut some plastic and tried starting it.  It fired right up.The brakes on it is in the middle back pumpkin, it was glowing red till he hit the cold glacier water, then no more brakes the rest of the way out.  He would get right up on me and low range through the rest of smaller down hills...  He actually drove it out to the glacier flats then it died.  I had to tow it 25 miles back to our trailer..  So that day started with a overnight Grizzly bear hunting trip in the wee hours of the morning and ended killing a 660lb Grizzly the first afternoon.....   :chuckle:  Good thing full insurance replacement...  He doesn't like large hill climbs anymore... Funny- now but man I thought he was through when I first saw him...

So, the next time we hear about a hunter with an arrow stuck through his leg, or shot with a rifle, we should comment "I would like to see more like that" if you do not like rifles or bow?

I think not.

Your comment was out of line.
