A tracked carrier() having a frame() and a handle() secured to the frame. The handle() has a proximal and a distal end thereto and may have a pair of downwardly depending support elements. The handle() has a brake lever() for controlling brakes mounted thereon. A first wheel() is secured to the distal end of the handle by frame elements and a pair of drive tracks secured to the proximal end of the handle by the frame elements. A drive engine() is mounted on the frame() and linked to the pair of drive tracks() by a drive mechanism. A throttle mechanism is operably engaged to the drive engine(). A hydraulic pump() linked to an hydraulic drive motor. The hydraulic pump() is linked to a pair of drive track arm levers. An accessory hydraulic attachment valve() for attaching various mechanical devices, preferably with hydraulic hoses, is secured to the frame() and to a secondary hydraulic pump(), and may accommodate operable linkage to various devices such as snowblowers, weed mowers, gardening plows, cultivator devices, scraping devices, augers, hydraulic mixers, carrier tubs, and other attachments.
