Melting the snow off of it now. Some BCIs & other wood on it.

Dual axles. Both axles have working brakes.
Spare tire needs replaced but the wheel looks OK.
Lights all work.

Nice trailer bogydave. Those little ones look good helpers. Where did you buy the trailer? There are other people that live up there where you live?;lol

The guy is leaving the state, I got lucky.
He was one of the few left here. LOL :)

Contrary to what most think, we do have some people here that don't live in igloos. Even have a few businesses LOL ;lol
Population is a tad over 700,000 .

If you need anything for it in that area, eTrailer.com. Write it down. Don't lose it! ;)
We have sixrobbelees here, have almost everything for trailers, reasonable prices. (when shipping factored in)
http://sixrobblees.com/
Shipping is typically a killer here unless you live in some remote villages. There they get a lot of free shipping,
(Was $545 shipping when I was looking for a log splitter)
 
Wow, I priced a 10" electric Brake assembly (then did it x4) and sixroblees still beat it after shipping (assuming you pick up locally) even tho they get another $20 each for the exact same part. Might be worth checking etrailer if you need a LOT of goods but it would have to be a massive order for sure.

Got any friends in remote villages? ;lol
 
Adorable, (if you don't mind me sayin').
I didn't imagine that little girls went with bare knees in AK in Feb.

I thought that for a minute as well. Then I remembered my little ones don'e seem to be bothered with the cold either. They are a lot tougher than us "older" folk. ;lol
