    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is snowmobiling safe?
    Snowmobiling, an exhilarating outdoor sport, carries inherent risks and the possibility of injury. While not inherently dangerous, no trustworthy outfitter will claim it's entirely safe. With that said YOU can massively shape the amount of risk you take and significantly decrease the chance of any issues. Follow guide instructions, drive in control and ride in designated areas that will reduce or eliminate any exposure to avalanche terrain. It's illegal and prohibited to use alcohol or drugs before or during the trip. Participants under the influence will be excluded from the trip without a refund.
    Do you recommend we share a snowmobile or get our own?
    It's a great question and it depends on what you want to get out of the experience. Perhaps you are newly in love and you like the idea of being snuggled up to your partner and able to talk while riding and share the exact same fun and wonderful moments together. The downside is the snowmobile is less maneuverable and much more difficult to take anywhere off-groomed if you have two riders and lets face it, it is never as much fun to be the rider than the driver. So if you're looking for more throttle thrills, freedom and agility and independence then we definitely recommend getting your own sled for the optimal experience.
    What elevations will we be snowmobiling at?
    We ride in the 10,000 to 12,000 foot elevation range, which means over 300 inches of snow a year and epic San Juan mountain views.
    Can we have two riders per snowmobile?
    Yes, most of our tours allow for a second passenger to ride along for a small additional fee. The weight maximum for one sled is 400 lbs so if the two riders exceed that limit you will need to be switched to individual sleds (and charged accordingly). The Backcountry Tour is for single rider sleds only.
    What should I wear for a snowmobile tour?
    Wear your ski and snowboardclothing or winter weather clothing: snow pants, jackets, boots, gloves and warm layers. We provide helmets. Goggles are required and are available for purchase on-site or bring your own. We also recommend you bring water and snacks for the trail and sunscreen if a sunny day.
    What is the minimum age to drive a snowmobile?
    You must be 16 with a valid drivers license to drive a snowmobile. If you will be a driver with a passenger, you must be 18+. All riders must be at least 4 years of age.
