The stress bulb of the snowmobile reaches deeper into the snowpack. Additionally, snowmobilers can cover much more ground on a given day on our snowmobiles effectively applying that stress to more areas. With the increased power and capabilities of snowmobiles and snow bikes, motorized travelers are able to climb higher and further than human-powered backcountry travelers. This puts motorized travelers at a greater risk of entering avalanche terrain unaware of their surroundings and the potential dangers in the backcountry. Avalanche education is essential for motorized backcountry travel!<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nCheck out the Facebook page: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hcosledfest<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bear Valley, CA&#8230;HCO (Highcountry Octane Films) SLEDFEST 2023 is an annual snowmobile social and spectator event like no-other in the U.S.!
