Hey FF! Sounds like a truly rough several days. Hopefully all is well on that front. As for the ride you took.. as always great pics! Looks like a great way to open 2021!

Just out tooling around. Great weather!

Since this picture the wife has added a rear rack (Can Am official), replaced the hand guards and added fender flares for the mud. For our neck of the woods, this XxC hauls butt through trees and the Fox shocks have soaked up everything we've thrown at it. KFI winch plate nicely accommodates a Superwinch Terra 35 and the Can Am plate for the plow we just leave on year around and in the picture below shows how flush it sits with the belly.

Well why not Renegade ro ride the woods AND plow snow? I've had the Can Am alpine plow since 2017 and love it, the amount of snow it moves is unreal and the Renegade has plenty of power and weight to move it. Mine is just a 800 but I've never had any issues. Great machine!

And last one. Fun day just playing with the drone and riding about 45 miles. 2021_03_04_13_30_14_Cache.mp4

And I'll throw this in for good measure, just playing with drone footage a bit. Nothing spectacular but shows the area better than the pictures above. 2021_03_04_14_22_45_Cache_1.mp4

This thread needed a bump! Lets see if a panoramic turns out. Took this off the drone today. My favorite riding area! And if the pano doesnt work than this other one will do

Figured I'd post another. Taken last summer with my son NW of Rapid City in the Nemo area. GPX was loaded from my Voyager Pro. If anyone is ever in the area and you love burgers and fries Sugar Shack has the best in the hills hands down! https://bnc.lt/RFZm/9d2hoQBvZdb#.YC7B0zHhM10.link

Nice ride! Wow, looks like great country to ride in! This is more like an example of using the Voyager Pro then uploading the GPX to Ride Command... and the hours show how long I forgot to turn off tracking. https://bnc.lt/RFZm/bHtru1q6Ydb#.YC7B07fBlH8.link

Polaris Ride Command works great and the Trail Tech Voyager Pro (also a Polaris product) uses the group ride feature. My experience with the Ride Command on my phone is great until I lose cell service and with all the mountains, valleys in our area cell service becomes very intermittent if not gone all together. That's the biggest reason I like a dedicated GPS on my rides. I do record the tracks on my VP and upload the GPX to my Ride Command so I can access it there so its not without use

The Voyager Pro GPS is easy to see in daylight and at a glance when I'm riding, either standing up or seated. It displayed just the info I need with multiple modes to choose from. My TRX700XX didn't come with any electronic gizmos or speedo so having the VP is a great addition to this bike. Just wanted to share a few more pics of it mounted on the quad

I have a Garmin Montana 680t and was also using the Avenza maps as well until Trail Tech updated the Voyager Pro gps to use custom base maps. So now the Garmin has become a backup and the Avenza being pretty much moth balled. Having the custom basemaps you can use MVUM maps by making MBtiles maps. I use Caltopo for creating my maps and I can easily add boundary markers such as public land or even icons and such for point of reference and I also use it for creation of my routes. The Voyager Pro (VP) imports them effortlessly and the display is very easy to see even in bright sunlight. A few pictures shows the tile I created in red and its an enormous riding area (but small file) and the VP can load multiples of MBTiles at a time if need be. For example I created the entirety of the Black Hills SD MVUM trail system in just 1 MBTile file that the VP loaded with no issue. I won't get into the other benefits of the VP due to this being a GPS thread but if some are interested I can create a review thread to showcase some of its other features.
