Precious cargo there. She's both, trusting and crazy for blackberries.
Did ya'll float 'em? ... to watch all the little bugs that come floatin' to the surface?!
Bugs love blackberries, too!

A snowmobile trail groomer. Has cutters that shave the snow, pulls the snow in the groomer then deposits it in low spots and packs it with the rear pan.
Did about 12+ miles yesterday with it. We have two trucks with tracks to haul the groomers, but the tractor works better early in the season until the trails get smoothed and filled.
I'll start a thread someday with some grooming equip pics.

Interesting. Did you build it yourself?

No, this one was built by one of our members. We have two that are large like this one (approx. 7x16') and are pulled by the trucks.
My biggest limitation pulling it with the tractor is the weight, most of our bridges were built to handle smaller equipment. Here's a shot of an old rig that I still use now and then to groom.
Sorry for the thread highjack.

Got a cousin who lives in the Upper Peninsula and worked in the winter grooming state trails. Used a snow cat with heated cab. I think he said he had over 80 miles of trail to tend. Done mostly at night to avoid the snowmobile users.

Nice set up.Here are a few of mine...
I've recently upgraded to an L4610 and will be selling these two. In the past I would use one tractor when I needed the bucket, and the other when I needed the PTO or 3pt forks, now I can finally have one tractor that does BOTH
