Island Park’s high basins and powder fields are the setting for a concentrated day of snowmobile riding: full‑day Ski‑Doo rentals from Island Park Rentals let you choose machines tuned for deep‑powder mountain runs or for easier trail loops, with heated grips and electric start options to keep the chill at bay.

THE FLEET

Purpose‑built Ski‑Doo models for every rider

Island Park Rentals fields a selection of Ski‑Doo machines: Summit 850x165 and 850x154 models geared for deep‑powder mountain riding (for experienced riders), and Grand Touring and Backcountry 600 series machines intended for trail riding and beginners. All machines feature heated hand grips; some touring and backcountry models also have electric start.

THE TERRAIN

Mountain runs or scenic trail loops — pick your day

Rentals are set up to support either mountain‑focused outings in deep powder (on the Summit models for experienced riders) or gentler trail riding on the Grand Touring and Backcountry models, letting riders tailor the day to skill and appetite for technical terrain.

THE COMFORTS

Cold‑weather features that matter

Heated hand grips come standard across the fleet, and select models include electric start, meaning less time fussing with cold fingers and more time on the snow during the full‑day rental window.

What the day feels like

What a day on these sleds feels like

From the moment you pick up your Ski‑Doo through the end of the eight‑hour window, the day is about time on the snow — choosing either mountain runs that test your technique on Summit models or more forgiving trail circuits on Grand Touring and Backcountry machines. The operator outfits each sled with heated grips and, where available, electric start so you spend the day riding rather than tinkering.
