Default Ice auger machine...

Forgive me if it’s been posted before, but I just stumbled across these things and thought they were kinda neat. Not sure how well it would work in our snow, but neat anyways.

I wonder how long a tank of gas would last? I would imagine you would have to register it as an OHV and get insurance. Could be fun to play around on when the fishing is slow.

why wouldnt you just use the quad in the trailer. Not much of a test in one inch of snow

Much easier and smaller to transport than a quad. And perhaps you could get away with it not being "motorized" if you also made (or if it came with) a set of pedals to swap on when prying eyes are watching
