Snowmobile Safety Education
Snowmobiling provides great opportunities for family recreation during the winter months in Wisconsin. Many people will be operating a snowmobile for the first time and along with that, new skills must be learned and new attitudes developed. The purpose of snowmobile safety training is to expose new users to basic snowmobile safety, responsibilities, ethics, laws and mechanical functions.
Course Information
  • Classroom Instruction
    The snowmobile safety course consists of a six-eight hours of basic instruction in the principles of snowmobile safety. The course is comprised of six hours of classroom study and an optional two hours of hands-on snowmobile operation or optional snowmobile ride simulation. CD -ROM Instruction
    For those who are not able to locate a snowmobile safety course in their area, the Department has created a snowmobile safety course that is available on CD-ROM.

Yellowstone was required to develop a winter use plan. August 1, 1999 - the Draft Winter Use Plan (DEIS) was released with an expected 90 day review (11/1/99) that was extended twice to December 15, 1999. Public participation included 48,600 comments from 46 states. October 10, 2000 - The Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks and John D.

Snowmobile Safety
In North America, more than 10 million people enjoy snowmobiling, according to the International Snowmobile Manufacturers Association (ISMA), and it is a family sport for most participants. However, the laws governing snowmobiling vary widely between states and provinces, and they are generally less restrictive than regulations which govern the use of other motor vehicles, including all-terrain vehicles. In some areas, helmets are not required and children as young as eight can legally operate a snowmobile. Often there are no regulations governing snowmobile use on private property. As of Jan. 1, 2001, the State of Wisconsin requires that snowmobilers who are at least 12 years old and who were born after Jan. 1, 1985, must have completed a snowmobile safety course. The state offers an eight-hour safety course that includes classroom study and hands-on operation of a snowmobile. The course is conducted by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and covers such topics as transporting a snowmobile, environmental impacts, protective gear, emergency situations and regulations as well as safety tips. In reviewing data from the past several winters in Wisconsin, the DNR observed that snowmobilers were most likely to be involved in a deadly accident between 8 p.m. and 3 a.m., so extreme caution is urged at night.

Snowmobiles
A sure cure for cabin fever for many people is a blast into the woods on a snowmobile. The McCall area offers enough trails and "boondocking" backcountry to satisfy any snowmobiler's appetite for wide open country. Local snowmobilers say it's the variety of terrain that makes the McCall area the top snowmobile destinations in the state. Riders can start at Smiths Ferry 35 miles south of McCall and ride groomed trails all the way to Warren to the north, a distance of about 100 miles. Between those two points, another 400 miles of trails meander through Adams and Valley counties. Trail groomers located at Smiths Ferry, Cascade and McCall keep the trails in top shape for snowmobilers. The Red Ridge and West Mountain area southwest of McCall provides easy trails for all riders and access to great vistas that overlook Meadows Valley and the Council area. Riders can also travel north of McCall up the North Fork of the Payette River, over Secesh Summit and into the backcountry hamlets of Warren and Secesh for fuel, food, beverages and lodging. They can also take a short detour to Burgdorf for a quick soak in its famous hot springs, or spend the night in one of the Burgdorf's rustic cabins. For information about these areas, riders can call the Secesh Stage Stop at (208) 636-6789 or the Winter Inn at Warren at 636-4393. Burgdorf can be reached at 636-3036.

Harrisburg, PA 17105-8767 Dear Secretary Oliver: The Council has been involved with the Bureau of State Parks early on in its process to review and update existing state park rules and regulations. We have found bureau employees to be cordial and open to Council ideas and questions throughout this process. We support the process undertaken by the bureau to gather public input. Council offers several suggestions for change and explains why we feel change should be considered to the regulations as drafted. These suggestions are: Section 11.201 . Definitions.
    Modify the definition of Department by eliminating the phrase "bureaus and". Council is concerned that this definition makes clear that only authorized officials of the Department, whether they be deputies, bureau directors or park managers, have the authority to carry out the provisions of the rulemaking. The language revision that we propose accomplishes this. The reference to "bureaus" detracts from this important distinction.

Concerns - National Parks
Overview
Snowmobiling has become controversial in a number of National Parks, National Forests, and other public lands in the United States. The most widely publicized controversy concerns Yellowstone National Park. By the year 2000, visitors were making about 75,000 snowmobile trips and 1,300 snowcoach trips into the Park during a 100 day period each winter. Over 60 percent of these visitors were entering the Park through the West Entrance, from the town of West Yellowstone. On peak days over 1,000 snowmobiles were using this entrance, where conditions often include dense, cold, stable air that is conducive to high air pollution levels. Rules and Regulations
