The Crow Snow Riders’ hard work has paid off—the club was recently named Club of the Year in the southern region at the ASA Excellence Awards presented by the Alberta Snowmobile Association.

Visitors to the Pass will be treated to varying terrain, from prairies and foothills to steep mountains with gorgeous vistas. The southern region offers family-oriented riding in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. For thrill-seeking sledders, steep bowls can be found on the east side of the Continental Divide in York Creek, Lost Creek, Lynx Creek Basin and Westcastle.

The club grooms more than 200 kilometres of trails in the Pass, but there are 1,200 kilometres of marked trails overall.
