Not sure that's for me. Don't think you could use it in wilderness areas either.

I've seen that before. They used to have a different video. Notice how they never really show it going uphill? Have you ever pushed a wheelbarrow up a hill? Oh it's a blast. :lol:

Yea wheelbarrow up hill is not cool especially with manure in it all sorts of things can go wrong :evil: . And that thing has a large wheel, tipping may be a big issue. :|

We used a model similar to this one successfully in the past, but never uphill. The one I used did well for about 200 pounds, after that is was too hard to manage. Worked great on level or downhill ground, best on a trail.
