Island Park’s winter opens into wide, wind-scoured fields and steep, powder-filled bowls — terrain built for sleds. Untamed Backcountry Adventures outfits riders with top-tier machines and the basic gear so you can spend two days racing open snowfields or carving deep powder across the Yellowstone-adjacent landscape.

THE SLEDS

A fleet built for every level

Choose from an array of modern machines — from trail cruisers to high-performance mountain sleds — including Ski-Doo, Lynx and Polaris models so riders can match machine to terrain and ambition.

THE TERRAIN

Wide-open snowfields and deep powder

The experience centers on two contrasting playgrounds: broad flats for open-speed runs and deeper, technical powder where mountain sleds shine — a simple setup that lets you choose the style of ride.

THE PROCESS

Pick a sled, grab your gear, go

The operator keeps things straightforward: select a machine from the available fleet, get set up with the necessary clothing and essentials, then head into Island Park’s winter terrain with reliable equipment.

What the day feels like

What two days on these sleds feels like

Over two days you trade parking-lot logistics for a continuous focus on riding: selecting a machine suited to the conditions, layering up, and alternating between fast, open-field runs and technical powder laps. The setup is meant to give riders the freedom and confidence to explore — whether testing untouched lines or enjoying controlled, high-speed stretches.
