Alberta Tire Recommendation

Looking for new tires for my XP1K here in Alberta and would like an opinion from other Alberta riders on a tire that works well in the terrain that we ride in but is also more durable than the stock Bighorns. Lots of differing opinions on tires here on the forums but I would appreciate feedback from the people that understand what we ride on. The snow 8 months of the year then the tar-like mud and muskeg in between plus the dry, wickedly rocky trails.

Im looking at the ITP Blackwater Evolution’s currently thinking that they are durable and have a fairly aggressive tread that should be fairly self-cleaning in the mud and snow. But I love the look and durability of the Tensor Regulators too but there doesnt seem to be a definitive opinion on their performance in mud and snow.

Any AB rider thoughts?
