Any thoughts? I see 1 like this even comes with a saw. https://www.countrycat.com/riding-gear/sp1-products-62-46040-shovel-with-saw-black I don't know as a plastic one would be durable enough, but I don't want 1 that'll tear or scratch up my machine. As for anchoring, a bungie strap(s) come to mind. Last edited by AJE; 01/05/21 10:11 PM.

The one you linked to will probably work but I somehow can't imagine working a sled enough to get stuck but never getting a scratch . I know I have been thankful for flexible windshields a few times. All of mine are laced together with wire and duct tape. Heck throw in a pair of vise grips and you can conquer the world. One other thing you might consider. Snowshoes will work pretty well as a shovel in a pinch Mean As Nails

Narrow enough to dig out packed snow from under a high-centered atv or sxs, or dig out in front of wheels for traction. Short enough to stash or swing as a weapon. Can be used as walking stick.

That saw is a animal for clearing trail . I'm sure it was expensive but it was a gift, I've had it over ten years an has had up very well. Let me sugar coat this
