Can the Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07070 be Left On in the Winter

Question:

Am I suppose to remove the rack during the winter? I live in the mountains and wonder how easy it will be to get the snow off. Is it easy to take on and off?? Thanks

The Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07070 does not require removal in snowy conditions. If you don't have a use for it in the winter time then I would recommend removing it, if for nothing else that you will get better gas mileage. But, if you need to use it to carry cargo in the winter time then you could leave it on.
