Not a trip killer at all not even close for me. don't get me wrong I will cross a trail drive down the trail when its wide open. I just will not go on trails twisty turny trees and risk an accident. no there are hundreds of miles of forest service roads and in the winter time you don't need a road that's the best part you can go explore in meadows. We just keep posting snow machine trails it is not a good idea. Let alone they are horribly rough.

When I was a kid riding sleds I always thought it was my responsability if I hit somthing. like a skier or a dog or a sno-cat or a tree( god they should sue the forest survice if they hit a tree). I slowed down a little in blind spots now I am learning it would not have been my fault if I crashed into some one else going 12MPH.
I am cautious but will not give up my right to drive on public land.
There was a big deal here a few years ago about a skier that was killed by a snow border, it was very sad but the lawyers made it sound like snow sking is supposed to be safe Its not safe it is high risk.
Snowmobiels are not risk free and if you cant look at the risks and accept them you should stay home, not blame some one else when you go to fast and get hurt.
I guess I should have sued some one every time I got hurt doing something stupid.
