A cold breath of Arctic air meets the machine as your guide revs a Lynx Adventurer ACE and the forest opens up ahead. Morning light slices low across the snow, trees lining trails like quiet sentries. You follow behind the guide, the world reduced to engine hum, the whisper of skis over packed drifts and the occasional ripple of a frozen river daring you to cross.
