Trail run with the Alaska Track Association!

one thing I noticed is the rocks. I avoid them when possible.
Lyndon and I actually throw them off the trail before running through.
they tend to break my old st4 grousers.
 
I'm probably the worst one to ask about what track rigs can do and what they can't because my personal experience is growing up with a dad who had track rigs for the purpose of bringing home moose, caribou, sheep & salmon to put on the dinner table. We had a 1956 Bombardier J8 w/ a Chrysler flat head straight 6 where my job was to mop up the water coming out of the radiator going up hills so the plugs didn't foul. We also had a Snow Trac, a Play Cat, a Ranger and a Thiokol for awhile. None of these ever ran in the snow. I'll admit that you avoid rocks when you can but rocks were also part of going sheep hunting. I think that is why when ATA gets a tired track rig in from the woods, they're not tired from grooming trails but probably tired from being an Alaskan shopping cart. ?
 
after 30 miles of tundra my undercarriage looks like the creature from the black lagoon and there is no way to get rid of it with out getting down and pulling the vegetation out by hand.
