    Thank you. I am located in Austin, MN. and no i does not have a floor in it right now its just a Otter lodge 2. And we were just trying to come up with a plan to make a floor to keep our feet out of the slush.

    I see now ,it is a flip over shack, I know a guy that made a wooden deck/floor for his flip over shack and cover it totaly with rubberized under coating ,he cut holes 12″ in it to fish through. Just a thought for you

    Yep, I keep a couple pieces of foam/rubber mats in the sled, pieces are about 14″ wide and both pieces span the length of the house. Nice for keeping the feet dry and insulated.

    I carry a couple thin rubber flexible truck mud flaps that work good in the bottom of my sled for cushion and I take out to use for a temporary floormat also.Little extra weight but I mostly pull it with the wheeler anyhow.

    try the commercial door mats that are about 3/8″ thick foam rubber with short carpet on top they are about the same size as a 2 man flip over floor area and don’t freeze down.
