Snowmobiling

The San Juan Sledders Snowmobile Club is an active group that not only holds regular meetings and goes out on fun rides, it also remains involved with the county by being on call by La Plata County Search and Rescue during the winter.

There are at least two club rides per month so that everyone gets a chance to meet other snowmobilers and ride new areas. These rides also provide an opportunity to less-experienced riders to call on the expertise of the seasoned veteran snowmobilers. The club also grooms many trails in the area for multiple uses by cross-country skiers, dog sledders, snowshoers and hikers. For more information about the club and what areas/trails have been groomed, call (970) 884-2101. You can go to www.sanjuansledders.org  for current, updated information. Click on club news, then click on events.
