Snowmobiling in Ontario Canada....



Tips & Safety
  • #1 -NEVER RIDE ALONE!
  • Come prepared. Know the area, the weather, your route and the condition of your own body and equipment.
  • Know how to repair your machine and carry a repair kit along with extra spark plugs, drive belt, and a roll of twine and a knife. The last two items can be life savers if you need to improvise snowshoes or a shelter with branches.
  • Wear layers of high-quality, insulated clothing that can be adapted to all weather changes.
  • Take light, high-calorie foods or snacks.
  • Drive only until you have a half a tank of gas left, then GO BACK.
  • Always stay to the right on trails. Slow down or pull off the trail if necessary when encountering skiers, snowshoes\rs, dog sleds, or other trail users.
  • Drowning is a leading cause of snowmobile fatalities, Avoid riding on frozen lakes and rivers, and stay on the packed or marked trails.
  • If you are caught in a sudden snowstorm and whiteout conditions, the best bet is to stop and STAY WITH YOUR MACHINE. Wait until conditions lessen.
  • Snowmobiling trail maps are available locally at government offices, snowmachine dealerships, and the Chamber of Commerce
