You'll find one eventually, I'm sure. There's a dealer in southern Idaho that sells nothing but snow cats (tuckers, thiokols, bombardiers, etc). I can't remember their name, but they get the old rigs once in a while. We won't talk about licensing. Wallace is a small town, and all I usually do with it is drive it over to my cabin which is 10 miles away on snow-covered road. I think maybe I'm supposed to get a snowmobile sticker for it. Snowmobiles are legal on city streets too, so that should cover it. I don't have a trailer to take it anywhere else, so it kind of limits where I can go.

I agree that parking on planks, logs, brush, or anything else to get it off the ground would be smart, but I think I'll be okay so long as I drive it back and forth now and then so it gets up on top of the snow. If a big glob of frozen snow is stuck to the tracks, but not to the ground, it'll break loose when I start moving.

Yeah, I heard they got a lot more snow over towards spokane. It's pretty well quit here, and I don't think we have more than 15". Somebody just told me Coeur d'Alene was pretty well shut down with 27" of snow. Winter took a long time to get here this year, but I guess it's making up for lost time. I like it, but I hope we don't have as much global warming as we had last year. Trying to muck off a 75' x 100' flat roof with 5' of heavy snow on it was too much work for me! If the global warming is as deep this year, I think I'm going to figure out a way to hoist a snow blower up onto the roof.
