| One
of my hobbies is snow machining and grooming the many trails just north
of Fairbanks. Recently my neighbor and I put in for a trails grant and
purchased two used Tucker Snow-Cats with groomers. This one located at
my home is a 1977 two stroke diesel, 8 passenger model. A new
coat of paint and some general maintenance was completed summer of 2001.
 Pulling a small home made
groomer behind a Polaris wide track had been used for a number of years.
Wear on our machines and the ability to only groom 4 foot width per pass
has imposed limits. We can now groom an 8 foot wide path that is also compacted while staying warm and comfortable. |
