If you are trying to traverse hard solid rock with ice on chains are the only thing if no ice bare rubber would be best. I've worked on rock ledges many times in the woods, granite, shale and slate. Chains help 99% of the time and they are always better then steel tracks on stone.
While I'm back in NY now, we have lots of hills and woods with steep grades. many of the wood lots around here have some steep and twisty logging trails with limbs and logs under the snow interspaced with bare rock with snow and ice on it.
It is much different then Idaho, I enjoyed my time in that state. I mostly lived in the south west part of the state but did quite a bit of work in the Kellogg area when the silver industry was booming.
