I think speed makes a big difference. Even a 0.5 mph increase is huge for a yak. Who wants to blow an hour minimum just traveling 3 miles in a slow yak? Add some wind and it can easily be a two hour energy dump.

I'm going to charge my GPS so I can see what kind of speed I'm getting with my yak. Just guessing I'm going about 3 mph but I could be way off. I'm going to Silverwood tomorrow so I will be able to test it.
