Also looks like the sleds do a great job pulling lumber as well...
Ya know... Discovery has done so many facets of Alaska (now onto Alaska Gold Rush and of course the one coming about Air Freight/Transport), you think they have GOT to hit 'Alaska by Track' or something like that... and do a whole snow vehicle thing.

Ya we have that same problem up on the Salcha River with the weekend warriors on their rocket sleds. We get our trail all groomed up and then here they come. All they have to do is ride the River and rip all they want out there. But no there is always some of them that think they have to rip up the trail too.Your other option is to drag your trail to make it smoother. This is a video of us dragging a section of chain link fence double over a pipe with chains hooked to it. It makes the trail flat, but the snowmachines would haul ass on it because it was flat and they could go fast.... regardless, we could drive faster on it as well, like up to 12 miles an hour verse 7 to 9... By the way, it is a forty mile trip one way to get to the cabin, but when we were hauling a lot of freight to build them, this grooming made a big differance over a coupld of weeks of trips.

This video my Imp is towing lumber on our first trip out, but the Snotrac in the rear is pulling the drag, the next day on the way back out, the trail was flat as a board after the snow set up and we could make a round trip a day (80 miles).
