Rossland, Snowmobiling

Had a fabulous trip with Rob from High Mountain Adventures last week. There were 7 of us with 6 sleds. After some convincing I actually drove my own... not something that I ever thought I would want to do – but had a fabulous time.
We went to an area just outside of Rossland which is allocated for snowmobiling. The trails were beautiful with a mix of groomed wide trails (for roaring along really fast) and tighter trails thru the trees. The day that we went the visibility was pretty good and we went up to the summit and could see way over to the next valley.
Rob took great care of us, ensuring we were safe and had a lovely snack packed for the view point. He also does full day tours which include lunch in a cabin.
For someone who really enjoys non-motorised sports I was shocked at how much fun I had...
