I live in a small town in Alaska. Will this work on gravel for summer and ice for winter? We don't have sidewalks here.

It will definitely work on gravel, it's a pretty smooth ride. I honestly have no idea about the ice though. I don't know if it'll have traction or anything. I'm sorry, we don't have that in Las Vegas :)

For sure it will work on gravel! But I'm not sure if it will work on ice, for I won't ever have the opportunity to try it (as I live in a South American country). Something I have to mention is that the jogger is really light and I think that helps carrying the baby anywhere you go, as the wheels don't receive too much weight. The tires, though, usually have to be bumped on, specially on gravel.

I live in Ohio and have used this stroller during the winters with no problems. The nice thing about the bigger bike-like tires is that they give you a better ride. I think as long as you can get traction, your stroller will get it as well.

I would say it's not suitable for loose gravel. Ideal for smooth concrete and tarmac surfaces.

I don't expect it would work as well with gravel. The grass slides through the tongs but you might end up scooping up and losing some of your gravel. Worth a try based on the cheap price though. You can't really go wrong.

I only used it once on the sidewalks. My dog passed away. I still have it I received two small dogs so I will see how it works on our dirt roads now.

Although I can't say for sure how it would do on a gravel driveway, I have had a few pet strollers over the years (including a couple from Pet Gear) and found that rolling them on more rugged surfaces was not good for the stroller. The wheels became misaligned and made it harder to steer the stroller.

I have a gravel driveway and I just tilt it a little so it doesn't remove the snow all the way down to the gravel. Otherwise it will throw the gravel, which does happen once in a while.

I would think so, but I don't ride gravel roads and not sure what loosely paved would be. I ride mainly blacktop and concrete road. I have rode on gravel and it did fine, but that is very little gravel.

It works great for snow and even some ice. I have not tried it in sand yet but I think it would work just fine.

It is not very rugged. Perfect for sidewalks but I am not so sure about gravel.

I used it to across my back yard which is kind of rough - and it did fine. My sidewalks are a little rough (river rock) and it was fine on that as well. A little hard to push in the grass but that might have been due to my lack of strength at the time.

My surface is concrete and it works very well. The abrasiveness of the concrete does wear the blade out eventually, but any hard, smooth surface should work well as long as the snow isn't over 3-4"

I carry a bag of kitty litter which I throw down a handfull on the ice after I scraped away the snow with my boot and then set plastic grip rectangle and it can get purchase under and then by the tires weight on top. Any dirt or gravel on side of road would work the same. I live up on the Canadian border practically in the North Cascades National Park with real winter conditions and I have helped about 12 tourist get unstuck with it this winter so far. Good Luck!

Not so great in snow or ice. Snow tends to gather in the bottom treads, and that takes away any traction.

I have used on gravel driveway. It works great just keep it up so your not picking up stone.But may be small for a driveway..

I don't think it would be great on asphalt/gravel. It works great on flat cement, but I don't think the wheels will grip well on anything loose.

My driveway is about 40 feet long. It is covered by very old beat-up blacktop with many spots very rough and uneven due to years of heaving during our rough winters on the south shore of Lake Superior. Last winter was my first occasion to use the Yukon on it and it performed wonderfully. If your drive's gravel is firm during the winter I would suspect the Yukon would glide very well over it and do the job.

it'll work on small pea-gravel but on the bigger stuff you may end up with it full of gravel, ive used it on dirt and concrete. works awesome.
