Have some riding experience and want to get off the trails a bit more? Not quite ready for our Extreme Backcountry Trip? Join us on an Intermediate Backcountry Trip for a full day of fun in the snow. The Ski-Doo Expedition 900cc Ace makes the perfect crossover snowmobile from trails to the mountains.
Departing from our location at the base of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, we will make our way down some beautifully groomed trails to one of our amazing off-trail mountain riding areas. Enjoy a mountainside lunch and practice your off-trail skills in some of the best riding areas Golden BC has to offer.

Rocky Mountain Riders reserves the right to change or choose the riding terrain at any time without notice to ensure it is suitable, safe, and appropriate for the weather and riding conditions.
