A: We feel that we can teach anyone. Snowmobiles are the easiest motorized vehicle to operate and fun for everyone to ride. Cougar Mountain pioneered the sport of guided snowmobile trips and we have been teaching people to ride for over 18 years.

Q: What is the best tour for me?

A: We offer a first timer ride, the learn-to-ride tour, an intermediate ride, the explorer tour, and an advanced ride - the Summit tour. Please see each description for the best choice for you. We also have a Family Trail.

Q: Do I need a drivers license?

A: No. You must however be 16 years or older to drive a snowmobile.

Q: How many people can ride one snowmobile?

A: Two, a driver and a passenger.

Q: How old does the passenger need to be?

A: We generally recommend that kids be at least 8 years old. The most important aspect to us is your child's safety. Younger children can ride safely as long as they can wrap their arms comfortably around the driver and lock their hands together. We do retain the right to refuse small children who we feel will be in danger of falling off the snowmobile. The Family tour is a special tour designed for families with children who cannot be passengers. We have comfortable sleighs and a cool kids Ski-Doo "Mini Z" that they can try riding at the cabin.

Q: What are trails the like?

A: The trail system is about 100 km long, with lots of winding and climbing sections.

Q: What if I damage a snowmobile?

A: We offer a no-deductible collision coverage for $15, that protects you from accidental damages to our snowmobiles. This does not cover you in the event that you were found to be driving recklessly or were not following the instructions of our guides.

Q: Can we bring alcohol on the dinner trip?

A: No.
