Another snowmobiling season in Western Canada has come and gone. By now, most of us have packed away our gear and said goodnight to our sleds for the summer—maybe even shedding a tear in the process.
But we still have the memories, and the photos, to help us get through the next six months. A big thank you goes out to everyone who submitted photos for our annual Hotshot contest. We had so many great ones sent in—which made it difficult for our judges to pick a winner every month.
A big thank you also goes out to our sponsors, who supplied us with many great prizes to give away each month.
We won’t be giving away any more until next season, but you are welcome to continue sending in your sledding shots and videos throughout the summer months. We’ll even give you a free subscription to SnoRiders print magazine for doing so.
Or, you can visit our sister site, RidersWest, and enter your summer riding photos (ATVing, boating, dirt biking and motorcycling) in the RidersWest Hotshot Contest.
Here are some randomly selected photos from the 2013-2014 sledding season we thought you'd enjoy:

Greg Wells sent us this photo, and he wrote, “If we can't have great snow, at least we can have great sunsets.” It was sent in from Saskatchewan.

Here, six-year-old rider Karsyn Brown cruises on her 2000 z120 just east of Red Deer, Alberta. After a snowfall of more than 14 inches the day before, Karsyn and her family were excited to get the machines out the next morning for the first ride of the season.

A few buddies camped out in the mountains near Smithers, B.C., for a week with their snowboards and snowmobiles; this is just a small taste of what they were up to.
