this video. So, we're actually got We got some mounds of snow ready for this thing. But, you guys were the ones that originally invented tracks for snow. Right? Yeah. Yep. So, just the Posi-Track system in general has always been great in the snow. We come out of northern Minnesota, Grand Rapids, Minnesota. Uh we actually started with the the Tracks Truck, which was a snowmobile trail groomer. Um and now the Posi-Track system you see today is is different than that, but it still has its roots in snow.
