Ok, tracks may be a little more effort to turn, but when you have 30 - 40 inches of blown hard packed snow,
you need to have tracks!! A hydro drive helps too, because I had to go very very slow.
I had to put the Hydro Drive down to a crawl, and a few times I did have to back up, to let the cut snow fall in front, and then go forward again. There was a couple times when the tracks slipped, and I did have to rock the unit a bit, to get it going again.
This is on gravel, so I could not put the bucket all the way down which did cause some riding up, which I was able to control by going slower. I was able to cut this path in under 5 minutes.
My previous wheeled unit would never have touched this, and I suspect, other wheeled units would have not have got through this in the same amount of time:
And Yes, I backed out, there was an obstacle at the front of the driveway.
