Snowmobile West Yellowstone

the finest snowmobiling in the world. Perhaps this is due
to the tremendous amount of backcountry powder or it's proximity to Yellowstone National Park. Each March, the friendly town of West Yellowstone celebrates, and is host to, the World Snowmobile Expo. During the expo, the snowmobile manufacturers showcase and unveil the newest line of snowmobiles for the following season. Among the many industry exhibits, you can participate in snowmobiling events such as snowcross and drag races. Each day during expo week, a different event is featured.

West Yellowstone is unique in that you can legally drive snowmobiles on most streets and alleys right from your hotel.
