In the winter heart of Utah, North Forty Escapes offers an adrenaline-pumping adventure that combines the raw thrill of dog sledding with the high-speed excitement of snowmobiling. Based in Oakley, just a short drive from Park City, this outdoor business specializes in creating memorable experiences amid the region’s snow-covered wilderness. Their signature Combo Dog Sled and Snowmobile Tour is designed for families, groups of friends, or solo travelers seeking to immerse themselves in Utah’s winter landscape.
During this two-hour journey, participants are wrapped in warm gear and led through sprawling snowfields and winding forest corridors that showcase the area’s rugged beauty. The experience begins with the hum of snowmobiles, racing across frozen plains and weaving through dense aspen groves, before transitioning to the peaceful, rhythmic glide of dog sleds pulled by well-trained huskies. Each activity provides a different perspective: snowmobiling offers an exhilarating high-speed ride, while dog sledding delivers a serene connection to the wilderness.
What makes North Forty Escapes stand out is their ability to combine adventure with education, giving guests insight into the hardworking sled dogs and the ecosystem they inhabit. Oakley’s snowy expanses, surrounded by the Wasatch Range, serve as the perfect backdrop for these journeys, offering panoramic views and abundant wildlife sightings—perhaps a lone hawk or a curious fox along the trail.
