Pricing
Tour Details:
Your guide will pick you up between 6:00am and 7:00am at your lodging and drive to Flagg Ranch where you’ll have a hot breakfast and be outfitted with snowmobile gear- boots, one-piece suit, and helmet. After breakfast and getting geared up, you will then begin your journey through Yellowstone to The Grand Canyon.
You’ll follow the groomed trail, 65 miles one-way, to the spectacular Yellowstone Falls. The trail follows Yellowstone Lake and you’ll make stops each way for photos, wildlife viewing, and to learn about the history of the Park. This is an all day adventure that will have you on your snowmobile for about 8 hours. You’ll return to your lodging around 6pm-7pm.
Please note that since this is such a long & physically demanding day, drivers must have experience in driving a snowmobile. We also highly recommend not being a passenger, passengers do not get the direct heat from the engine which makes for a colder ride.
HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED for kids under the age of 12 years old.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED:
Winter clothing, thermals, balaclava, camera, driver’s license
