Ok ....
We all have read the brochures about the climbing abilities of some snowcats .
My Kristi KT7 brochure says it will even walk across the ceiling, like a spider, if need be ...
So really ... What is the steepest slope you have climbed in a snowcat ??? I am not talking about going downhill, as it could be over a cliff but gravity will take over and eventually send you to the bottom .
I'm talking about going up .Really up ! I know that weight and balance plays a terrific part of this . Some of you are very experienced snow cat operators with hundreds and thousands of hours behind the wheel ,so you are who I want to hear from . Can you give me an idea ,based on degrees of slope ???
I did see a Snow Master video of Lyndon's old Snow Trac going down and then turning around and going back up the steepest most unimaginable "God Awful" ravine I ever saw . If I had not seen the video ,I would not have believed it possible .
If there is anything out there that can out preform that SnowTrac , I would pay money just to watch .
