Mike Head of Groverdale, Alberta has rigged up a box tent for winter camping. OLD SLED ZONE Winter camping with these Elite models You don’t need a brand-new roaring monster-machine to have a great time in the snow, according to a reader from Groverdale, Alberta. Mike Head owns three Bombardier Elites made in 1972, 1978 and 1979 and with a little care and attention has turned them into the perfect conveyances for winter touring and camping, especially the ’78. “I customized it a little with an under-dash heater, CD player and also a Warn Winch,” wrote Head. Head has also rigged up a box tent in a large skimmer for those long camping trips in the dead of winter which he is able to set up in a flash. “I’ve been having too much fun with this unit,” said Head. He acknowledged that these sleds are pretty rare but he thought that Bombardier should still be making them. Judging from the fun Head has been having with these vintage sleds, they had better be.
