The rig belongs to my hunting partner on the far left in the first photo. It has been a mainstay for our field excursions over the last couple of seasons. Trailer is custom built with axles the same width as the ranger, with floatation tires, for ease of pull in muddy fields late in the season. We haven't gotten it stuck yet, even driving through shallow backwater (knock on wood). Notice the trap door at the top right corner. The opening is large enough to shove Big Foots in after the main gate is closed to maximize storage. Blinds go on top with straps or in the bed, depending on the size and style. We usually hunt 3 to 4 guys, but can go a couple more with one extra trip to the truck. All in all it is a very functional set up.

BFD, yes hopkinsville is pretty close to here. I can do it in about an hour, give or take 15. Winnipeg is our destination. This will be my fifth consecutive trip to Manitoba. I will definitely post pics.
