I bought an argo from a friend it was located at a remote cabin. Normally they access the cabin with bush planes. There was some old fire break lines cut in by the forestry, these fire lines/trails were visible on google maps. So with gps coordinates and screen shots of google maps we planned a day trip to retrieve it with snow machines it was 130 mile trip

I picked up a 2016 Argo Avenger 750 HD,, 32hp with the admiral transmission. I bought some Argo rubber tracks and man can I go places with that in the winter. Very low PSI foot print,, doesn’t sink in the soft snow. Wish I had been with your group,, good friends some sledding and being outdoors what more do you need. Cheers from Canada

Good trip. Faster taking it out by snow machine than driving it - even if is was drive-able.

I thought I had it bad having to drive 5 hours in a warm truck to pick up my Argo. Then again your trip looked like it was a great time out in the woods.

Nice work guys! I'm pretty sure I bought a couple old tundras from your dad a couple months back. I like your channel, keep up the good work. Maybe we will run into each other on the trail someday.

Looks like you had a good trip with little trouble. Argo looks like its had been towed before lol! Good luck with it there's been a lot of improvements since that one came off the assembly line! Take care.

I think that thing was built before the assembly line was even invented

No mules and not many moose either, I have a good friend that has been flying this area for the last 30 yrs and hunts near the Japan hills. He said flying from North Pole to the Ak range he would see 20-30 moose 20 yrs ago, now when I fly with him your lucky to see a moose that way.

@dustinclark8186 2 жыл бұрын

Sad but true. Used to be quite a few. I was there two years ago seen a bunch of mules. On airstrip.
