Blue Glacier

Blue Glacier

The two Grizzly toboggans (No. 53 and 54) performed exceptionally well. Each vehicle travelled 300 km, averaging 12 km/gallon fuel consumption. The only part replaced was the variator belt of machine No. 54 - this was partially worn from use prior to this event. Both machines always started on the electric Start, very little appeared to vibrate loose and track tension required little adjustment.
