Some clubs actually add tracks to Jeeps like yours to use as a groomer . . . in fact I believe Fairfield uses one or two Jeeps in this fashion. Here in Unity we're just poor, simple folk so we convert older Ford Rangers into groomers.

I assume you're being funny, but just in case you're not . . . the wheels are taken off and a rigging attached to where the wheel was mounted. The rigging then uses a traditional snowmobile track so that the vehicle (Ranger and Jeep alike) can drive over the snow. They actually work quite well.

(I know I've seen their setups before, but I was making a joke geared more towards just dragging the ranger much like farmers will drag old box spring mattresses behind the tractor to rake out the rocks):D

The groundhog may soon want to go into the witness protection program. Snow yesterday...snowing here now. Very hard on a new cacher.:D Heavey rain SUPPOSED to be coming Monday. Snow vs. Mud: I guess for now I'll take the mud.
