March 2008 | Welcome to the SnoRiders eNewsletter
Spring yields rich rewards for sledders—the warmer weather and sunny skies mean more of those perfect, bluebird days. So get out there and enjoy it while it lasts. Snowmobile clubs throughout Western Canada have been busy this season and we are pleased to report on a few of their activites. Last month, the editorial team here at SnoRiders travelled to Fernie, B.C., to sample some of its bottomless powder. Read more about their adventure, along with an inside look at the company that toured them for the day. And coming from our last print issue are some profiles of the most devoted snowmobiling families in Western Canada.
