I try to get out before it gets 1-1/2 feet deep. Taking small "side bites" after a full width path, I've been hood deep in snow. Going DOWN HILL, up hill that deep doesn't work well.

I have fluid filled 8.50s and four link chains. Two links would be better. No additional weight other than my 220 lb frame The front tires NOW are tri ribs 4.80-8 ( in video they are factory 4.80-8 ) and the tri ribs steer better.

I have two 125s and previously used the other one with 10.50s fluid filled and the wide 6.50 -8 front tires. That went well too but the skinnies steer better.

I do have a pair of 65 lb Gilson wheel weights that I can put on. ( shown on the manual lift 125. The hydraulic lift 125 is in the video )
