In particular, we highly recommend the Ariens RapidTrak snow blower, which offers the versatility of both a wheeled and tracked unit in a single machine. The RapidTrak maintains excellent traction even in challenging conditions, such as high snow piles on hilly or slippery terrain, while its wheeled setting provides swift and effortless maneuverability on flat surfaces. Its intuitive, user-friendly design allows operators to switch between settings in a matter of seconds.
If you’re currently in the market for a top-notch snow blower, ESI is your go-to source in Alaska for Ariens equipment.
