How good are snow tracs on terrain other than snow?

Specifically wooded and sandy areas

I meant snowcats and not snowtracs.

Country boy, I was looking at a picture of the snow trac nad noticed has thicker tracks than your implied. Would this specific one work?

I suppose I didn't specify. A snow cat has catterpillar tracks, like a battle tank.

Billy,
As you look at the traction bars on snow tires you will see that they are narrow and fairly tall. A snow tire tends to spin easily and dig a hole causing the tire to go straight down. A terrain tire has much wider bars and mathematically not as tall. This type tires tend to float over sand rather than dig holes. There thicker also.
