I have a Hoveround (mp4) electric which I bought on Craig's list for $200.00 - it stinks, in general (tough to get on) , but I can go on the grass with it, but it's a bumpy ride. I take my battery operated weed wacker, loping shears & hedge trimmer, & get some things done

I have these rubber "kleets" that pull onto your snow boots they have metal spikes on the bottom..they are very good and well made...I haven't even got close to slipping with them. Also my wheel chair is "all terrain" I am really impressed with it..I can go threw dirt grass and snow...deep sand doesn't work well in any chair I guess, but I was able to use my chair like a walker and I got down to the water...Oh I live in Lake Tahoe California..and we get a lot of snow too...I generally feel better in winter..as long as I don't get cold..and if I get bone chilling cold it could take days to warm up again..very painful.
