What We Do

Five core capabilities. One contractor relationship.

From breaking ground in June to managing snow in January — Mountain States Snowcats delivers across the full project lifecycle, year-round, with our own equipment and people.

Service Details

01

Excavation & Site Work

We handle the full scope of earthwork for commercial and residential development in Colorado's mountain terrain — from initial clearing and grading to final pad preparation. Our experienced operators and maintained equipment fleet mean we execute at scale without relying on subcontractors.

Work adjacent to our services includes site prep for septic system installations — we provide civil preparation, grading, and excavation support for septic projects, coordinating with licensed installers on-site.

  • Mass earthwork and land clearing
  • Foundation and pad grading
  • Utility trenching and burial
  • Stormwater and drainage systems
  • Retaining walls and slope stabilization
  • Site prep for septic system installations
  • Boulder removal and rock work

Commercial Snow Management

Large-scale commercial snow management in the Colorado mountains demands specialized equipment and experienced operators — not seasonal day laborers. Our snowcat fleet and commercial plow equipment handle the volume that standard contractors can't.

  • Snowcat trail grooming and access maintenance
  • Large-scale commercial plowing
  • Snow hauling and relocation
  • Storm response for commercial properties and HOAs
  • Development site winter maintenance
  • Seasonal and per-event contracts available

Trucking & Material Handling

Coordinated haul logistics tied directly to your project schedule. We move spoils, aggregates, materials, and our own equipment — eliminating the coordination layer between your GC and a separate trucking company.

  • Spoils and demolition material removal
  • Aggregate, fill, and import material delivery
  • Equipment transport on lowboy trailers
  • Snowcat transport to remote sites
  • Mountain-capable fleet — not limited by grade or access

Field Mechanical Services

Our certified diesel mechanics mobilize to your location — no trailer-in-trailer-out delays. We've built our mechanical capability around snowcat-specific service and heavy equipment, which means broader knowledge depth than a standard diesel shop.

We also provide snowcat access for cell tower maintenance in mountain terrain — supporting telecom clients who require access to remote tower sites during winter conditions.

  • Diesel engine diagnostics and repair
  • Hydraulic system service and rebuild
  • Track, undercarriage, and drivetrain
  • On-site welding and fabrication
  • Snowcat-specific mechanical service
  • Snowcat access for cell tower maintenance
  • Vehicle and equipment recovery

Snowcat Sales & Brokerage

We run one of the largest private snowcat fleets in North America. That experience translates directly into buying and specification advice that no equipment dealer can match. Whether you're purchasing a grooming machine for a ski area, acquiring a fleet for a government contract, or sourcing a single work cat for mountain access — we've been through the evaluation hundreds of times.

  • New and used snowcat sourcing
  • Prinoth, Bombardier, and Pisten Bully specialists
  • Fleet specification and procurement consulting
  • Snowcat leasing and rental referrals
  • Pre-purchase mechanical inspection
  • Financing introductions available
