More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The van slides onto a frozen lane and the air feels like it has its own weight; headlights cut through falling snow and a guide’s lantern marks the private base. You swap city layers for thermal overalls and a helmet, then climb onto a brand-new 2025 snowmobile. Engines purr, the forest exhales, and you push into two hours of wide, quiet tundra and track-lined pines.
