During Mountain Training Exercise 1-25 (MTX 1-25) at the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center (MCMWTC) in Bridgeport, California, Marine Corps personnel were seen utilizing Tucker-Terra Model 1600 Sno-Cats.

These unique all-terrain vehicles, with their distinct design, have long been part of the Marine Corps’ training and emergency operations toolkit, yet continue to draw attention due to their unconventional appearance.

MTX 1-25 is designed to prepare Marine Corps units for cold-weather, high-altitude operations. The exercise focuses on survival skills, strengthening expeditionary warfare tactics, and building confidence in navigating mountainous terrain. The Tucker Sno-Cats play a vital role in supporting these missions by providing reliable transportation in extreme snow conditions.
