JASON RAMSAY'S 1976 POLARIS TX250



This is a 1976 TX 250. Jason had one 25 years ago and was in search of one.  He could not find one anywhere local, but came across a basket case but the tunnel was perfect.  After virtually replacing everything on the sled, he had a new 1976 TX 250 and yes he drives it each winter.  Jason Prince Edward Island Canada

SNOWMOBILING ANTARCTICA

NASA scientists use snowmobiles in the ice-covered Antarctica to search for meteorites which they claim contain clues for the origins of life.
To begin their journey, the snowmobiles are slung under the bellies of helicopters and flown hundreds of miles to jumping-off points.
Once the sleds have arrived at their destination, they are each loaded with up to 1,000 pounds of equipment.  In normal operation, they will get a maximum of six miles to the gallon and will never be driven more than 12 miles per hour
