RIDING THE VEHICLE
Light Treading in no way suggests you
should curb your appetite for snowmo-
biling fun! It simply means tread with
respect!
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, reg-
ulations and other information from
the Forest Service or from other pub-
lic 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. Remember,
there is a link between protecting your
environment and your own safety.
Respect wildlife and be particularly
sensitive of animals that are rearing
young or suffering from food shortage.
Stress can sap scarce energy reserves.
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”.
Snowmobilers know all too well the ef-
forts that have been made throughout
the sport's history to enjoy access to
areas where people can snowmobile
safely and responsibly. This effort con-
tinues today, as strong as ever.
Respecting the areas where we ride...
wherever they may be... is the only
way to ensure their future enjoyment.
That's one major reason why we know
you'll agree that Light Treading is smart
sledding! And there are more.
Enjoying the opportunity to see winter
and all its natural majestic wonders,
is an experience cherished by snow-
mobilers. Light Treading will preserve
this opportunity and will make it pos-
sible for us to expose others to the
beauty of winter and the unique thrill of
our sport! Light Treading will help our
sport to grow!
Finally, Light Treading is the sign of a
smart snowmobiler. You don't have
to leave big tracks or careen through a
virgin forest to show you can ride. So
whether you're driving a high perfor-
mance Lynx, a sporty RS snowmobile
or any other make or model, show you
know what you're doing. Show you
know how to send snow flying and
make tracks with a light touch!
