Please make replicas of parts to sell. I would buy these for a lot of money.

Awesome! Go Sandpoint Trailblazers!!!

that's pretty slick! We could use a machine like this here in the Cascades, so we could increase the access of cross country trails. Here, everybody has snow machines, and they blast all over the place, pretty much eliminating any Nordic skiing in the places where you could actually ski. The rest of our terrain is steep, both up and down. Lends itself to Alpine touring though.

Too bad my drive is about 2 hours from here or I would check this place out

Excellent trail system! So fun to ride… these riders slayed the trails 😉😋👍

The riders are amazing!!! The trails look challenging and those riders make it look easy!!! Beautiful trails!

Trails are looking great. Missing North Idaho.

Ooh can't wait to see the footage on the Monarch Grind. Great video! Almost makes me want to do a gravel race. Almost.

Best trails in the NE!

Looking forward to it!

Dude this is a crazy awesome video, everything you've done is what I've imagined so far even with the kick board sled, I totally thought of that very thing in my head already and its so cool to see it. You need to go into business and start selling this stuff as accessories. I just bought a brand new snow dog the other day. Do you have any recommendations for cold starting or any other handy items you bring along to help for starting or for any other issues?

Snowdog should watch this and work with you to create the "Groomer" package on their next year models!

o-trail is an experience for sure. Its nigh impossible on humid summer mornings where everything is covered in water and slippery and you're sweating buckets just hanging out in the parking lot waiting to be eaten by the Maine mosquitos...which are the size of bears

that's funny.. grooming single track for fat bikes.... 100 feet at a time because the rider is completely gassed after 50 feet of peddling...

Thank you for this information. I just purchased a snowdog to groom my own winter trails .

Thank you very much for your amazing support

Where can I get a groomer?

Great video especially since I have had guys tell me this type of machine is terrible in soft snow and rough terrain. Like Spencer I need to see a close up of the two axis hitch to understand this system.

Hey Glen, I would like to understand your hitch better.Maybe you could post a close up. I have build a snow dog using a snowmobile track and tunnel. Has tons of traction and I geared it down so that I can creep along and have it pull well. Anyway I like the idea of shifting weight actually assisting with steering. Cheers

I live in Portland and just bought a fat bike. Have been enjoying your videos. Do you ride exclusively with studded tires in winter?

Do these do well in drifting snow?

So beautiful! Thank you 😊

The "perfect line" in regards to Challenge 3 is to cheat and stay to the right of the trail at the beginning. There's no way I can ride that section otherwise, lol. Have you tried the loop in reverse?

I just tried this trail for the first time today! I really loved it! I thought it was a serious workout, the flowy sections feel like small gifts that egg you on before the technical parts begin again. I did not make it over any of the three challenges you mentioned without eventually pushing my bike. It had rained in the morning and everything was slick which I think made it harder. Either way, I'm excited to try this trail again soon. I just got into mountain biking the past year and Bradbury is 15 minutes from my house. Maybe I'll see you on the trail! Thanks for posting this video, the camera shrinks the challenge significantly.

I don't have a machine to modify, but I do want to ride 'yer trails...

👏👍👌🇳🇴 😷

Where is Glenn located and what is the name of his resort?

Awesome! Just found out about Harris Hill from Dee at Loudperformance.

Howdy from the mid Atlantic! You prolly already figured out that line by now but, instead of staying left close to the tree and then immediately running into those chunky rocks right after that big root; i would stay right into that larger rock, unweight over it and give your self a little more space to get 1.5 cranks to carry momentum through said chunky rocks. Anywhoo, that trail/park looks really awesome what a treasure. Are you still planning on releasing the (Fatbiking in the NE?) Film? I love your videos and i look forward to more!

Is this film still in the works?

Is this wise ol timer willing to help duplicate or send info ? No need to do from scratch what or reinvent if someone has done it. How does one get in touch with him or the gentleman interviewing him?

Yes driving this thing from the factory is like wrestling an ox with string on it’s ears. I’m starting the handle change today but would really like a picture of how the hitch to sled connection looks. No good vie in video.

Perhaps there’s a way to attach the single track groomer ( weighted down) behind the cargo sled for deeper snow. 2 birds one stone...clear and groom at same time. Wish someone had one for trails near me.

Hey Glen! Great video! I would also be very interested in a couple picks of the two axis hitch, especially the attachment point and side to side pivot at the sled! Working on a back country "super dog" build to reach some remote lakes! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Keep up the good work! Cheers🍻

Also are you using their factory grooming sled? what mods have you made to the cargo sled to help with stability?

Do you have good photos that we can build from? I am referring to both the hitch, and handlebars, great mods, I was going to try a moveable weight slung low on the side at the center of the machine to overcome the tipping tendancies. I am using the machine in a lot of tight and sidehill applications here in Utah and may still add that as a backup. You have thought out your changes well and I am starting on my machine today! Thank you so much for sharing this!

Where did you get/make that hitch could somebody pay and have one shipped? Im still new to the snowdog ownership thing but that hitch looks amazing.

Nice! I live in the area and just started riding recently; decided to try this on a whim this past weekend. Really challenging but also super fun. Even though there are blue trails at Bradbury I definitely haven't mastered, I think I might hit the O trail again next time I'm there. (You picked a great day to get video of it too. I put some footage from my first "O" run into my latest video, but it was a super sunny day and the contrast between the light and shadow makes it hard to see all the janky stuff on the trail.)

sick

So...the original design needs more work to make the machine decent... has the manufacturer picked up on your improvements and feedback?

What model snow dog do you use? I'm looking to get one to groom singletrack in southern NH. I'm thinking since we dont get much snow and the trails are tight here the compact would be the way to go. What do you think? Thanks

Overall I am very happy with the set up, and it works very well grooming my trails. Can it be better, would I do anything differently? The split axis hitch could be an inch to an inch and a half shorter. The closer to the machine the left / right pivot is the easier the machine is to turn. In tighter than 90 degree turns sometimes my groomer [or sled] will hit the back of the U hitch. While it easily turn where I need it, I would like to not have this limitation. I think I would like to try some additional adjustment holes for the handlebar assembly pivot. It does not take much difference front and rear, to greatly affect how it feels. As you move the pivot location forward, the machine becomes much more responsive, but it takes more effort to turn it. For myself, my current sweet spot [in the video] is working the best. I periodically try that one more forward hole, and right away it's a wow! This is even better, but fairly quickly I get fatigued operating it in that location. I would like to hand a row of pivot locations [to try] about the current ones. Higher yet might be better, and I would make the holes half way between the current ones. My adjustable handlebar stops need a lock nut. They do tend to creep down while operating. [thats a very easy fix.] I do wish I had more of my steertube accessible for more fore and aft adjustment on the stem. I may add an adjustable stem to "correct" that. Future work.. I am contemplating a second throttle, one for the left side of the handlebar. Some mountain sleds have them [snowmobiles]. I can turn much tighter to the right than the left, because of the throttle placement It a very tight left hand turn.. it is more of a reach. I plan on new brakes. [Mostly just so they are more service able.] I don't think replacement shoes are available, although that might change. I would like to install a chain tensioner. I would also like to make something else for a cover. I would like more grip from the track. My machine came stock with studs molded into the track, but they are pretty small. The track itself could also be slightly more aggressive. I am contemplating adding something for cleats, but there isn't much room, so creating some space.

Another change I made, that is not in the video, is the addition of Snowdog's Slide suspension. It greatly improves handling. I did have a problem with the original slides. The slippery part is just riveted on, and the rivets fail, pretty quickly. On my replacement piece , I drilled and countersunk small bolts to hold it in place.

I tried this yesterday for the first time specifically after finding this video. If I come back again I'll definitely ride up Switchback and descend Boundary clockwise like you did here.

you deserve a million likes. need more keywords in your description and tags. bike model tire width, carriage model. etc...

That was a nice appetizer!!

Such a cool trailer, look forward watching the whole story

Want to see a electric version of snowdog.
