So, after suffering through an early dump of snow and minus temperatures on the weekend at the camp, then having to drive home in the evening on some nasty roads, I got to thinking about alternative vehicles that are meant to handle the snow and cold.
As usual, the internet never fails to amaze with the crazy array of every type of tracked beast one could imagine for Winter navigation. Check out this variety of vehicles, from the military (of course ) to home made, and everything in between, even a self propelled model.
 |
| Not sure just what this home made looking rig does but it must be serious |
 |
| Always count on the military to have seriously tracked machines |
 |
| Take an old VW Micro-Bus.... |
 |
| Back in the day..... |
 |
| Not sure if this is a working model but it looks massively impressive for a vintage machine |
 |
| This slick and sleek looking Argo would be pretty quick on snow |
 |
| Better have good balance with this self propelled rig |
 |
| I thought this Volvo rig was military but apparently this one is used in the logging industry |
 |
| The Mini-Ripsaw is evidently built a bit more nimble than most of the machines in this post |
 |
| Someone obviously lives in a place where this conversion makes total sense |
 |
| An old school touring tracked machine still used in Yellowstone National Park |
 |
| Did you read my post titled "Want", about the Sherp ATV? |
 |
| Another quick looking rig, but at least this one has the creature comforts of a closed cab |
 |
| Again, an old school conversion, so people were obviously thinking of the same thing back in those days |
 |
| Another VW conversion |
 |
| And another vintage conversion too |
