Can a Gator UTV with Tracks Keep Up With a Snowcat? Guess Which Gets Stuck First!



We added Camso Tracks to our John Deere Gator 835M. Can it compete with a Snowcat in deep compacted snow? We try steep hills, deep snow, rough soil, etc.
Camso sponsored the tracks for this system.

  1. "We try steel hills" typo!
    What was Ryan's backup plan if Sarge hadn't been able to effect the river rescue?
    What plans do you have for the tracks back in Indiana? Not much for snow or off road hills.

  2. Wow, that was too much fun! What an impressive performance, but don’t leave home without the Yankum strap. I’ll bet Christy got a work out on the great video. Blessings to all.

  3. It would be interesting to measure and compare track area. I suspect the Snowcat has the advantage. It has 2.5 times the weight, but I am estimating 4 times the track area.

  4. The tracks on the Gator are nice, but the Snowcat wins me over. Mostly because I remember various Alistair MacLean stories with Snowcats when I was a kid and the imagery always stuck with me :). Were those bear tracks at 4:37?

  5. Great video! You sold me on buying tracks. I’ve had my new JD835R for 6 weeks and I know what I’m buying next for it. I’ve been a snowmobiler for 25 years now but my body isn’t fairing so well with it! The tracks will keep me going with heat, cup holders and plenty of in cab storage for Scooby snacks. 😊

  6. I was impressed with how well the 835R did with the tracks. Not sure if your Gator is still out here in Colorado but if you come back to play with it, let me know. I’d love to show you how my Gator RSX 860M performs.
