So glad everybody likes the snowcat jamboree video . Stay tuned for more snowcat adventures and gear reviews. I n March we will be going to the 2020 snow cat jamboree. I will have the opportunity to interview some of the snow cat owners. Remember, everything's better when you're Bound for Adventure.
Very cool. I have spent many years operating snowcats in northern Canada opening up winter roads. I am now on a pipeline project in the mountains running a Hagglund, waist deep snow and it's still falling. Decent way to make living I must say.
UK calling. Back in the 1950s after a lecture in London on the Trans Antarctic Expedition, I was lucky enough to sit in one of the Snow-cats which reached the South Pole, with Sir Vivian Fuchs team.
Never heard of a Snowcat until having watched Adventures with Purpose pulling one out of that once frozen lake in Oregon. Got me interested in exactly what that thing is. It looks like y'all have quite the good time together. Cheers from a place it never snows.
I've been around sno-cats all my life, now, keep in mind that the ONLY sno-cats here are the ones made by tucker! these machines are mostly the 4 tracked ones, a couple of the 2 track snow trucks might be actual sno-cats but otherwise there not sno-cats actually dont take a lot of maintenance at all, just basic track tensioning, greasing, and oil changes will do everything you need, they'll run for years and pretty much maintenance free other than the basics found with any other vehicle
Out here in northern Ontario I use my 2003 trail boss snow cat all time, groom my own trails for snowmobiling. She pulls a 20’ drag and I mean pulls threw 3 feet snow ❄️.
This is so Awesome . I didn’t know people owned their own snocats/groomers. Would be sweet to bomb around anywhere you wanted to go with one. I like the 4 track models. They look so cool. I’m guessing these probably cost a pretty penny? Can these machines actually get stuck though in to deep of snow? Keep the cool vids coming.
I've seen some vehicles working the pipelines here on the 3rd coast that are similar... it'd be a fun mod to mount a skoolie on a snow cat type chassis...
That white Tucker from Newe Jersey, is it 1643? It appears to have the long (7 bogie) tracks, but it appears to be the C-28 version with the narrower 28" tracks instead of the 38" tracks?
@Dave Iauco Wondering if it's the same. We called it the "Avalanche Rocket". It was the same 2.75" diameter with fold out fins. They were the same rocket motors used on the Apache attack helicopters. Thanks
Id come from massachusets if i had money time and a snow cat that would be lots of fun its so much better to go out for hours in the larger groups to be safe .
