The Rogue Dog Sled 1.2 is one of the best sleds on the market, however, for most people it’s overpriced and over-built. This is where the Rogue Echo Sled comes in. A beefy sled at a great price.

Rogue has been hinting at a new more affordable dog sled for some time.
They currently offer the Rogue Dog Sled 1.2 that although is a great sled, is also pretty bulky and unnecessarilyexpensive for those who don’t plan to purchase the attachments.
The Rogue Echo Dog Sled is simple in design and very efficient.
The Echo Dog Sled offers a streamlined, budget-priced design. By cutting the base from a single 1/4” sheet of steel and reducing welds and scrap, Rogue has built a maximum-efficiency weight sled that’s still equipped for intense, multi-surface training.
