Thanks for opening this message!

We need your help. To support organizations and businesses that service our snowmobile community we need to get a better idea of the number of riders out there, where they are located and how prepared they are.

Please take 5 minutes to compete this 8 question survey. Then forward this link on to sledders around North America.


to START THE SURVEY.

Tried answering the questions but I haven't a clue about the numbers of people that sled the back country. I would be skewing the results with my misinformation.:)

Done. But I feel that the questions should not be to estimate. Ask the questions do you ride in the out back? do you use avalanche gear, etc. That would give you more precise numbers. JMO

Hi Pipes,
Thanks for the feedback. You are totally right that actual numbers of users is the best solution, but the problem is that it is likely only the 'converted' will take the time do this online survey. Then the numbers would really looked skewed.

Without paying someone to sit at trail heads across the continent and quiz riders on the snow we don't really have an economical way to get a big picture view using true and scientifically generated numbers.

For now this will give a general picture that might trigger individual regions to generate something more formal. It is all about budget money...where best to spend it. If we can get a good cross section of the sled population to complete this exercise we'll have some material to start with.

Thanks to everyone for taking the time to fill it out!
If you know sledders that aren't on this forum just send them this link to access it direct:

I agree with Pipes. I filled in the survey but my estimates are likely way out to lunch. Not sure how that will help.
