JUST WHAT IS LIGHT TREADING?
The fundamental objective of Light
Treading is one of respect for where
and how you ride a snowmobile.
You're a light treader when you follow
the principles below.
Become informed. Obtain maps,
regulations and other information
from the Forest Service or from other
public land agencies. Learn the rules
and follow them and that goes for
speed limits, too!
Avoid running over young trees,
shrubs, and grasses and don't cut
wood. On flatlands or areas where
trail riding is popular, it's important to
ride only where authorized. Remem-
ber, there is a link between protecting
your environment and your own safe-
ty.
Respect wildlife and be particularly
sensitive of animals that are rearing
young or suffering from food short-
age. Stress can sap scarce energy re-
serves. Refrain from riding in areas
where only animals are intended to
tread!
Obey gate closures and regulatory
signs and remember, light treaders
don't litter!
Stay out of wilderness areas. They're
closed to all vehicles. Know where
the boundaries are.
Obtain permission to travel across
private land. Respect the rights of
landowners and other people's pri-
vacy. Remember, snowmobile tech-
nology has lowered the noise factor
considerably, but you still shouldn't
rev your engines where quiet “is the
order of the day”.
