Mountain riding is all about finding and riding the flat stuff...

Everyone knows that...

Kinda like flat land Saskatchewan riding,,, but at 5000 +++ feet in elevation less the thin air pressure... ha

Mountain rider =
One who joins their local club and/or Association
Attends club events/meetings
Encourages others to do so
Takes a non snowmobiler, snowmobiling
Makes no fuss about paying trail pass and supporting the sport
Chops wood and stocks the wood box at local riding shelters.
Packs out what they pack in
Obeys riding zones that our leaders fight to retain on our behalf
Accredited AST training and also encouraging others
Im sure im forgetting some items, but I think you get the picture.

After that just enjoy the terrain with your family and friends.
Safe sledding

Only a mountain rider if you go to revelstoke with monster energies, white oakleys, lifted truck, no tarp, and post to Instagram all day then retag all your buddies with the same footage. If the words “sick bro” or “crushin monies” doesn’t roll off the tip of your tongue you aren’t a mountain rider.

Fawkn eh! The great one gave me a shout out. thanks bruh haha;)

Can you still be a mountain rider with Electric Start?
Or is it only pull starts that qualify?

Hopefully after reading this more riders become one. Perhaps we should post this on the door in the cabins.

I'm going to ride a snowmobile on a mountain today. Does that make me a mountain rider?
