Program of trafficability tests with 10 tracked vehicles was conducted in nine confined muskeg areas in Ontario; 141 single self-propelled tests, eight towing tests, five towed-vehicle tests, and 12 torque-requirement tests were conducted; results showed that vehicle performance on self-propelled basis can be correlated reasonably well with cone index of muskeg; vehicles weighing less than 6000 lb could travel without difficulty on all consolidated muskeg areas but had varying degrees of difficulty on floating mats; heavier vehicles weighing up to 33,000 lb could travel on some consolidated muskeg areas but not on others.
