Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE MACHINES

Purpose‑Built 4‑Stroke Ski‑Doos

The fleet consists of 4‑stroke Ski‑Doo machines: single‑seat 600 Renegades or 600 Summits and factory two‑seat machines, all equipped with hand warmers for added comfort on an extended day of riding.

THE DURATION

A Full Day on Snow

This offering is an eight‑hour rental that lets you spend a full day on the machines rather than a short demonstration — enough time to settle into the gear and explore the winter landscape.

THE ACCESS

Trailhead Logistics Matter

Operators note the need for transportation to the Francis Wallace Trailhead and recommend a high‑clearance vehicle, 4x4, or all‑wheel drive to reach trail access points.

What the day feels like

What the Eight Hours Feels Like

You spend the day on proven 4‑stroke Ski‑Doos, choosing between single‑seat performance machines or two‑seat factory models, with hand warmers fitted to the controls to keep extremities tolerable during long runs; the rental structure is built to give riders a sustained on‑snow window rather than a brief outing.
