Been snowmobiling since I was 6 or so.....I love it! We have been going to Colorado and Wyoming for for a few years now too.....problem is that my knees and shoulders can't take the abuse with the type of riding we do. I figured the Ranger, or whatever I get, will be a good transition out of the boon docking and and hill climbing I have been doing, while still being able to have some fun in all seasons. I am having having some difficulty finding trail systems that a Ranger can legally be on.
