Northern Toboggan & Sled Product Line

Ice Fisherman’s Hand Sled

New for the fall of 2006, we are excited to add the “Ice Fisherman’s Hand Sled” to our product line.  This little sled came about much like our Downhill Toboggans did -- from the requests of outdoors people who have a sledding need.  This sled is made for those folks who don’t use an ATV or Snowmobile to get out to their favorite spot on the ice. There has been considerable input from “walk on” ice fishermen for design and specs of this particular sled. It is small and light for easy loading in the vehicle. It is also strong and stable to handle all the gear and equipment for a day on the ice.

The general consensus is that whatever collapsible fish house is preferred, is first laid flat on the sled, then on top goes a crate or box of choice containing tackle, equipment, lunch, etc., and along side or on top of the crate goes the power auger.  it is up to the individual fisherman to organize his “outfit” to simplify loading the sled. Once the sled is loaded the load is lashed or bungee strapped to the sled.

Fully loaded, this sled moves like nothing and makes the hike out and back to shore a pleasure.

When we started building sleighs for towing, we had inquiries for coasting toboggans, and when we launched our website, we had even more. Due to the many requests we experimented with prototypes in 2001.  In 2002, we had our very good sleighs for sale. This season we added downhill toboggans to our product line.  Customer satisfaction has been very high.  This coasting toboggan is of very high quality by design, construction and materials. It has to be to have our brand.

Slush Boards:

Slush from the snowmobile track can accumulate on the front of a towing sled or between sled and machine, eventually pulling down on the track and causing spin-out. The Slush Board is a piece of molded UHMW poly that readily attaches to the front of the steel hitch. The board extends down below the sled deck and curves between the runners for approximately 12 inches. It won't interfere with the mobility of the hitch or the function of the sled, and it is held snub against the sled bottom with a rubber bungee strap. This directs any slush being thrown up by the track under the sled, not allowing any buildup. This setup will give both sled and snow machine the best chance to get past a potentially dangerous slush hazard.

    UHMW Slush Board for 25" Freight Sleds: $55
    UHMW Slush Board for 30" Freight Sleds: $65

    ORDER

Sliders:

Sliders are UHMW poly strips installed on toboggan edges to protect from rock and tree bashing, and to extend the life of the sled.
