ABSTRACT:
A snow vehicle having a frame, a body, a windscreen on the frame, two front steerable skis and two rear crawler tracks. An engine and drive train are located at the rear for driving both of the tracks. The drive train includes two fluid couplings, each coupling a crawler track, respectively. Two seats are positioned forwardly of the engine at the intersection of two lines seen in plan to extend from the geometric centers of front skis to the geometric center of opposite rear crawler tracks. A steering ski is located between the rear crawler tracks and extends downwardly just below the lower surfaces of the tracks. The ski is mounted to the crawler track suspension and pivots about a substantially vertical axis in a direction opposite to the motion of the front skis.
