We have done several experiments on hills with this and another trailer. It always comes back to traction and power. Towing any trailer with any amount of weight will have an impact on your ability to climb hills because it is dead weight. So many variables like are you trying to climb a hill with loose rocks, what kind of tires do you have, can you safely stop on the hill without rolling backwards, etc. To be more specific, we were just on the Paiute ATV Trail in Utah for 5 days. We had a couple of trailers with us on the first day. One trailer weighed about 750 lbs and was being hauled by a 2 up Polaris 850. When we reached our first major hill climb, he had enough power, but couldn't get enough traction on the loose rock and ended up winching up the hill. The second trailer totaled about 350 lbs and was being towed by a Kingquad 750. He made it up the same hills without winching. If you are going to be doing hills, towing less weight is always better. If you have to tow a lot of weight up a lot of hills, make sure you have a big machine.
Yeah, slip up there on calling volume when recording the voice over and didn't realize until after publishing. The GVWR according to Bosski's specs is 800 lbs. If you see it listed as something different, please do let me know. www.bosskibuilt.com/800-Aluminum-Trailer
It can carry almost 600 lbs how can you ask for more the only issue would be those tires they are just 2 ply ...Should come with more tied downs like you said and a cargo net for the outside packages you put on top

Nicely done great see it was tested in the northwest
Still waiting to see some videos where you guys actually take this trailer on some trips!
Haha, yes, I actually have a short video in the works of a trip with the trailer. It's on it's way.
Nice honest, real world review.
Thanks. Goal achieved.
Excellent review. Thanks. Do you think this would keep you from climbing steeper grades when loaded?
