Tracked Can Am Recovery: Snow Cat Mountain Rescue Off Road Recovery (Noddy)

[@adamtacheira5323]

This video popped up. I realize that it’s old but I still enjoy seeing you and Matt working together. I truly thought you guys had great chemistry. I realize that I have no idea what happened behind closed doors, but hope you guys are still friendly. Wishing you the best.

[@OMGWTFBBQSHEEP]

Yeah, it would be so nice if they were still collaborating! I read in some comment that it was due to a disagreement regarding pay between matt and casey, not sure if that's the case tho. I also miss Randy, i wonder what happend there

[@thomasfletcher4765]

@@OMGWTFBBQSHEEP Randy sometimes shows up on Casey's videos but does have his own channel " all terrain Randy "

[@adamtacheira5323]

There was a comment made by Matt in a response on Facebook. Matt said he was served a court order to cease and desist with any video that depicted Casey. Now obviously something happened before hand to cause such an action, but I have no idea nor do I want to guess what it was. Though the speed difference of how both channels have grown is huge. Matt is a million plus now.

[@fraserhenderson7839]

Subbed and liked. Your 110 is the only one I've seen without a cab. I worked with Nodwells in the high arctic long ago and they all had awesome gas heaters for those -40 workdays, something not seen today due to CO risk. Interesting that both tracked vehicles are Canadian. 2 Canadian tracked vehicles to collect yet another Canadian tracked vehicle. Not surprising when you understand around 95% of Canada is wilderness with no road access and 20% of all terrain above the 60th parallel is muskeg. I hope they don't let you down. 100,000 oil workers in Alaska and northern Canada love that 110! Even Russians are big fans of Nodwell and Foremost. Best wishes for your future tracked endeavors!

[@CaseysOffRoadRecovery]

Thank You. They are great machines. I have seen a few around without cabs. This one may get a cab sometime down the road.

[@scottminer7702]

Since I almost pulled a snowmobile once, I looked up how to pull them without tearing them apart. With the equipment I have, the easiest way is a tree strap and two soft shackles from where the skis attach to the suspension. I also have a chain bridle but the tree strap is alot lighter and does the same thing. Cheers.

[@Chris_at_Home]

My first year working on the North Slope 40 years ago I worked seismic work and we used Nodwells and TerraFlez tracked rigs. There had tracks are like the ones on yours. Those suckers would go anywhere. I also remember changing a track myself doing summer maintenance. Did you go home and build a heated cab for the Nodwell? Maybe an electric heated suit 🙂 to bad I can’t call you when I break down or get stuck..

[@CaseysOffRoadRecovery]

That is awesome. We didnt do anything on the cab. It is a no worse than snowmobiling.

[@Chris_at_Home]

@@CaseysOffRoadRecovery probably true as a Nodwell is pretty slow. I worked in Prudhoe Bay on and off for about 35 years and I used to ride is some pretty cool rigs for the first few hours then it wasn’t so cool. I’ve been in those big rig with the real wide smooth tires driven by rollers, they do about 12 MPH. I’d ride in these going to remote drill sites with our communications module, generator, satellite dish and tower materials. We’d set up communications for the remote drill sites they built on ice pads.

[@Petriefied0246]

You guys should invest in a Hagglunds BV206, they'd be just as much use in the sand in summer as the snow in winter!

@@CaseysOffRoadRecovery they're amazing and totally unstoppable! I used them when I went to the Falkland Islands with the British Army.

US Army used them as well as the M937 and M1067 Small Unit Support Vehicle. Plenty have been surplussed in the US. They’re not cheap, but they’re lots of fun.

Not that it really matters but I was thinking after I saw how the unit sat on your trailer after you parked, if you would have gained enough traction or not to climb that last slippery section by temporarily moving the Nodwell as far forward as you could on the trailer, probably overloading the pickup in the process though.
