I am looking at a Pronovost P-680 that's up for auction. Can this snow blower be mounted to the back of a tractor? Everything I see online shows them mounted to the front.

As far as I can tell it is a standard 3 point hitch rear push snowblower. So yes, it is meant to go on the back of a tractor.
This is a link to Pronovost's information page on it. P-680

Just sold a Lucknow. I got tired of looking at it beside the barn doing nothing. Bought a 10 foot plow and that was it for the blower.

Auctions almost by their definition mean the winner pays more than most people think something is worth. Don't get me wrong, I like auctions, but also watch people overpay for stuff badly just so they can "win".
Before things start, figure out what an item is worth new, used & to you. Never ever bid more than that. You may loose, but that just means you didn't overpay.

Biomass to be exact. Wood chip fired. Very familiar with them. The outfit I retired from had one for low pressure steam. Too bad I don't have a picture of the rest of the system, just the boiler. I was the 'head fireman'.... IOW, clinker shoveler.

Pronovost is a quality product for a big price made in Canada.
Often used by commercial snow clearing companies and disposed of when at the end of a hard life..
Unless you know its history, I would not pay much for it and would be prepared to replace drive chain, sprockets, pto joints and hope the gearbox has life left.
