My RC100 skidsteer died deep in the woods with hydraulic drive motor issues, could not be repaired in field. Constructed a sled with timbers & steel then used CAT excavator to drag half mile for repair. Lifted rear of machine and pushed sled underneath. Tracks don't free wheel, they are unlocked hydraulically. Worked surprising well, no damage to machine dragging out the woods. Skidsteer was too heavy for the CAT to lift and carry out.

Good thinking.
That Cat could have probably picked up the ASV and carried it out too.
