It should be a good time,to bad i dont have the log hauler ready! :'( ;D ;D well maybe next year. Heres a link to the snowcat forum ad.

There was a show on RFD TV where they put one of the (Model T I think) track kits with ski's on a truck. I think it was "Our 5 Sons" in Alaska.
The American Pickers bought a set of Ski's on their show the other night.

Listening to snowmobiles go by on the side of the highway while I type. Slow year so far, we had some snow, lost most of it but we now have enough to groom. You can run an airboat on snow if you don't have anything better.

The last picture is a Bombardier Muskeg and the back looks unfinished to me ??? Like there should be a roller at the top or something ??? I didn't spot a winch either ?

 Glad you could make it !!I was there early 9-10.30 then came back later on around 1.00 !!!! i guess we missed each other.The Bomber used to have a fairlead and winch on it,when waterville valley ski area owned it .It was taken off before these guys got it they want to put one back on. I'm going back tomorrow for a while.

Sorry to miss you. I was there around 11:30-12.

The Ford tracks were much quieter than I expected. Five ? Fords had a factory type track and one person had made their own. My hat's off to them !
Another machine had the 'factory' type cleats and tire guides mounted on a rubber belt. Another good idea.
