ATV Good in Snow?

For what those track kits cost, plus the price of the ATV in the first place, you could hire a helicopter to fly you back there a couple times a year.

The only reasonably priced option for year round wandering like that is an Argo with tracks for the snow, they are not fast, and they are not graceful, but you will get there and back.

Best of luck.

ATV Good in Snow?

I've seen a few people up here use snow tracks on the Gator 6X4's.

There are ski kits for the front end that were designed for ATV's, they subtitute snowmobile skis for the front wheels.

The tracks they use are for an Argo, they are basically just like the tracks for SSL's in that they go around the existing tires and connect two adjoining axles together, but these are made of some sort of plastic material.

Some people make their own tracks using snowmobile track material and just adding steel 'L' brackets to keep them from slipping off the tires.

I suspect though that the reduced weight of a Gator goes a long way to keeping it on top of the snow.

Best of luck.
