UWC_GROOMER SNOWMOBILES
The United States Forest Service, Intermountain Region, Uintah-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Pleasant Grove and Spanish Fork South Zone Trails program is going to purchase two new Two Stroke, Mountain/Grooming snowmobiles to continue the implementation of grooming Fat Bike trails, and doing back country education. The specifications below are needed due to two main factors. First the trails that are being groomed are in uneven terrain, and deep powder snow. Second, the snowmobiles will be pulling a grooming implement behind them adding extra weight. These specifications are necessary to meet both the needs of breaking trail, and pulling the groomer. We need a hybrid between a traditional cross country snowmobile and a grooming snowmobile as these sleds will be doing both types of work. Both snowmobiles need to be the same as they will be used together and need to both be able to pull the groomer so that the wear and tear of that work will be spread across two machines instead of one. Rack behind the seat is needed for hauling snowshoes and winter survival gear. Requesting Brand Name or Equal for the SkiDoo Expedition extreme 850R E-Tec, equivalent would also be a Polaris Titan XC 155, 2019 MODEL YEAR OR NEWER
Salient characters/ must haves + Rear hitch mount, ability to tow. Rack behind seat.
