We had to put in a new waterline to our spring water supply.We have been using this to bring equipment up to the spring up the mountain side.Been thinking what a rig to haul a moose out with.

What do they call that thing?

It looks like if you run it off too steep of a grade it would roll over and end back up on its tracks.

I believe that is a J5 and they made a bigger one called a J8. The state here uses them for fire fighting in the spring in the swamps.


I have nothing clever to put here.

We called them Tracksters when I worked with US F&W sea lamprey control. Go most anywhere they can get solid traction. Though not fully aquatic like an Argo.
