The Frisby Ridge Snowmobile Trail was constructed by the
Revelstoke Snowmobile Club with the cooperation with the B.C.
Forest Service. The B.C. Forest Service manages the trail within
its recreation program.
TRAIL SAFETY CHECKLIST
Watch for trail grooming equipment. Use your headlights at all
times. Wear an approved helmet. Never travel alone; ride with a
buddy. Ensure that someone knows where you are going and when you
expect to return. Carry a repair kit in case of breakdowns. Dress
properly as frost bite and/or hypothermia can come on quickly.
Carry an emergency kit complete with first aid equipment, high
energy food and hot liquids. Watch the weather closely, changes
can occur quickly in mountainous areas. The wind can dramatically
increase the danger of exposure even on relatively pleasant days.
Remember, it is illegal to operate snowmobile on snowplowed
roads.
REMEMBER, your safety is your own personal responsibility. Hazards exist in the area you are entering and
caution must be exercised.
Frisby Ridge is an important habitat area for mountain caribou. The Revelstoke Snowmobile Club, Ministry of Environment
and the B.C. Snowmobile Federation have cooperated in
implementing a program to reduce the disturbance on Caribou that snowmobiling may have.
Information on these closed areas can be obtained through the
Revelstoke Snowmobile Club or the Ministry of Environment. Your
cooperation in making this program work will ensure continued
enjoyment for all snowmobilers on Frisby Ridge.
