Bear River Lodge – Annual Snowmobiling Day Trip
We found a deal that was too good to pass up at Bear River Lodge! The resort was having a deal going on that you could buy a group of “5 tickets” for $500. Turns out they do this almost EVERY YEAR! Each ticket lets you rent a machine for a day (snowmobiles, four-wheelers, side by sides, ect.). Right when we opened the email we texted some friends and asked if they wanted in on the deal and of course they said YES! We invited four additional friends to come snowmobiling and we rented 3 two-person snowmobiles. That meant it was $50 each for a whole day of snowmobiling, which is an amazing deal! (We kept two tickets for ourselves that we plan to use this summer for ATV rentals) We planned a Saturday that worked for everyone in January and packed up our snow gear then headed on the long drive at 6:00am. We all mostly slept on the way up except for the driver.
I am not a huge fan of snowmobiles, the first time my boyfriend took me out on one he rolled it on us and got it stuck for half the day in the snow. It wasn’t all that fun…but this time it was a blast and I am learning to love snowmobiling!
We turned it into a group date thing which made it even more fun! We took off on trails and we all took turns driving them/riding them around. It was a perfect day, it lightly snowed and the only thing that got cold were my toes. Thank goodness for the warming hut they have on the trail. We went there to eat some snacks and warm up before riding around again.
Bear River Lodge is the perfect place for snowmobiling. They have a bunch of different trails, beautiful scenery and we walked to a frozen waterfall that was pretty cool!
Keep Finding Adventure,
