If it was a Bv206 that was doing the resupply then it makes sense. 
That thing has a tiny ground pressure. Look at the overall weight. As 
the Army technology site says, they exert less than half of the 
pressure of a man's foot. No wonder the M113's were sinking in the 
snow and the Finn's were handling re-supply.
