About

GSR offers brand new Polaris & SkiDoo snowmobiles for your riding pleasure in Golden, BC. These machines are built to ride our epic snow-filled mountains and make your day the ultimate adventure.

For those looking to save a little money, we do offer non-current versions of some sleds as well.


Types of Snowmobiles

Polaris 850 RMK Matryx Hands down the lightest snowmobile in the industry, so what does this mean for you? Easy to ride! If you’re looking to take your riding to the next level this could be the sled to take you there. We have both RMK (165/155) models for you to choose from depending on the track length you want.

Polaris Boost Are you looking for the ultimate in power and performance? Hold on tight! These turbo’d machines are a handful and an absolute riot to ride! Who doesn’t like wheelies and turbo noises?

SkiDoo Expert 850 165" Quite simply, the agile, powerful and effortless Ski-Doo Expert is the beginning of a new era in mountain riding. A mountain sled has never been so responsive and agile, thanks to the combination of REV Gen5 platform and Rotax 850 E-TEC engine.

Polaris Voyageur 650cc 146" Perfect for beginners or family rides, this economical rental is capable of accessing big mountain terrain with comfort and reliability. With a 2-up seat you can bring a friend along for the journey!

Non Current Snowmobile We know renting sleds isn’t cheap so we came up with a plan to help you out if you are on a budget!! We inevitably have non-current (within a year or two of current / NOT ancient) snowmobiles around the shop. Give us a call, find out what we have available!
