track not moving question

I jacked up the back of the sled so the track is off the ground, the brakes are not stuck, the secondary clutch will not turn by hand, should I be able to move this by hand, if so I think a bearing or something is stopping it from turning or what else could it be.
thanks,

Make sure that there is nothing jammed in the track first.

Ice build up can cause the track not to turn.

no ice, no sticks, rocks etc. I think its gotta be in the chaincase, or a bearing, going to just hit the slopes the rest of the week, maybe rent a sled or something, thinking at this point it will be better to wait it out and fix it at home. thanks for the replies

I'm definitely no Gear-Head but is a jammed chain in the chain case a possibility?
