Wildlife compliments your snowmobiling day. Snowmobile tracks
provide firm ground over which animals can travel from area to area.
Do not violate this privilege by chasing or harassing wildlife. Fatigue
and exhaustion can lead to animal's death. Avoid areas posted for
the protection or feeding of wildlife.

snowmobile and observe quietly.
The guidelines that we support are not designed to limit your snow-
mobiling fun, but to preserve the beautiful freedom that you can ex-
perience only on a snowmobile! These guidelines will keep snow-
mobilers healthy, happy and able to introduce others to what they
know and enjoy about their favorite winter pastime. So, the next
time you hit the trails on a cool, crisp and clear winter day, we ask
you to remember that you are paving the way for the future of our
sport. Help us lead it down the right path! From all of us at BRP,
thank you for doing your share.
There is nothing more exhilarating than snowmobiling. Venturing on-
to snowmobile trails that criss-cross the wild areas of the U.S. and
Canada is an exciting and healthy winter sport. However, as the
number of people using these recreational parks increases, so does
the potential for damage to the environment. Abuse of land, facil-
ities and resources inevitably leads to restrictions and closures of
both private and public land.
In essence, the greatest threat to our sport, is all around us. Which
leaves us with one logical choice. When we snowmobile, we must
always ride responsibly.
The vast majority respect the law and the environment. Each of us
must set an example for those who are new to the sport, young and
old alike.
It is in every one's best interest to tread lightly into our recreational
areas. Because, in the long run, to protect the sport we must pre-
serve the environment.
Recognizing the importance of this issue and the need for snowmo-
bilers to do their share in preserving areas that make it possible to
enjoy our sport, BRP has developed the “Light Treading Is Smart
Sledding” campaign for snowmobilers.
