@foamybubbles79 i understand the idea that tire chains can possibly tear up the ground, but being stuck and digging your way down a foot with tires isnt the best either. i run tire chains on my transport truck sometimes and dont dig down at all. i will run on an iceroad or a bushroad in the oilfields where chaining up is mandatory for large vehicles. the ones who tears things up are the ones who go in "barefoot" (without chains" and get stuck.

Being the fact that the Antartic is a sort of a "protected" environment the use of chains could chew up and destroy the ground thus defeating the purpose of being there to study stuff. Plus those tires are designed to "float" over the snow, so once again, chains would dig in and once again possibly hurt the sensitive areas.

i see equipment like log skidders working and they all have chains..thinking a chain for a tire like that...$1000 each maybe a bit more. was looking at you trying to get it out and if i was there, i would have been freustrated that there were no chains! lol

Well, you could always suggest it to the NSF, maybe through the USAP website. You could even apply to work as a vehicle operator down there, drive the big things out on the ice.

one question to the uploader...why would they not run tire chains on it? good set of chains and it would pretty much go anywhere. i drive commercial vehicle in northern canada and we all carry chains....

Oh, I have no clue. Its probably a budget issue. I just know the thing hit a soft spot of snow and then dug its own grave. Eventually we got it out, but yeah, for a while we were digging around the tires.
Or maybe they have chains and don't know it. There was a lot of old, forgotten equipment on station.
