Cool deep snow

You folks were wondering how much snow a hawk can go in. Well i rode mine in fresh snow over the seat, burnt a full tank of gas and never got stuck or fell down. It was mostly on the flat, but could go up 10' in elevation also. They can climb nearly as well as a long track 800 polaris in 20" of snow. This is with a 144" track. Also It is nearly impossible for any regular sled to keep up to them in the mountains. I ride a 600 136" too much fun. I also have 3 sleds from a 700 viper to a 800 rev. 65 years old. Live in Missoula Mont. We have 6 hawks in our group .We just had 5" at our warming hut on sunday There will be a lot of hawks at the snow show in Puyallup Wash. in October. Have a great day.
