When I was doing Gravity and Mag work, we used the Honda Rancher 400s.
Not too heavy a couple of guys or one big guy could wrestle it into a truck without ramps, and fits almost anywhere.
I was younger and more immortal, and took that thing places people wouldnt consider hiking.
Nowadays I'd still use it but not like I used to.
We had a diesel mule and it was okay for wide open areas, but again in tight quarters, useless.
had to google it,?ÿ lol.?ÿ I must be carefully next time tell my wife I bought an atv accessory.?ÿ
what ever you get make sure you get a winch, especially if you are working by yourself.
Not a lot to offer for the ATV recommendation, but having spend some time surveying off the beaten track, a good winch is the difference between inconvenience and a wasted day. And, it is always faster (and cheaper) to walk if you have any doubt at all.
Having a wench would be much more fun.
As long as she is strong enough to get the ATV out.
My neighbor just bought this:
The beachside LEA use side-by-side.
When I was out in the field we had a 6 wheel ranger. It was great would climb about anything or mow it over. Most of the time when we are in the big mountains we use the LPC aka leather personnel carrier.?ÿ
Sounds like low RPM UTV (ie not belt drive) or Honda Rancher 4x4 would fit the bill.
I've been thinking about this for a while now:

@rich-roberge That's old technology, but I knew alot of Surveyor's that used them. If you were tough enough you could go anywhere with them.

That was meant for Rich Roberge' post.
