Ski-Doo dealer Jerry Schmier of Yellowstone Adventures was recently recognized for more than 50 years of supporting and promoting snowmobiling with induction into the International Snowmobile Hall of Fame.

Schmier was a true pioneer in the West Yellowstone Montana area, creating a Ski-Doo dealership and motel to serve the Yellowstone National Park area in winter, a model that many followed. He also worked tirelessly to develop trails systems in the area, key to turning it into one of the premier snowmobile destinations in the world. He also devoted much of his time ensuring snowmobilers could ride within Yellowstone National Park, a fight that has lasted for over two decades.

I have known and done business with the Schmier family for nearly 30 years. Their dedication and personal contributions to the sport of snowmobiling are inspiring,” stated Matt Hill, National Sales Director BRP, U.S. “Jerry’s induction into the Snowmobile Hall of Fame is well deserved and we are proud that he has represented BRP.”

Jerry is “retired,” and his sons have now taken over Yellowstone Adventures.
