My Friend in Steamboat bought this for his kid. Somehow I think the kid is going to have to share. This is so cool!

Hi Ron,

A little larger and we will finally have that ski caddie we could use to carry our quivers.

Cheers,

Michael

Wow, how cool.  What a great idea fpr snowy areas.  I would think major resorts would sell a ton of them.

my realtor in Steamboat, Jon Wade,who has turned into a good friend is a good guy who is a big kid himself. I was speaking with him yesterday and I was asking about his oldest son who is about 5-6. He was raving about this snowcat and it was obvious he liked as much or more than his son! Jon will be skiing with us in December. We can play with it then!

Now just a couple comments here...

I notice that the tracks were matched for most of the turns, and even some float between turns. Center of mass was riight for most of the powder runs except for a couple of turns where the weight was too far forward and the tips nose dived in the deep snow.

I see no lifting and tipping...hmm...mus t be PSIA...but hey, that's ok cause that little powder hound was doing just fine!

AND....the color is WAY cool!
