DISCOVERING | Snowmobiling the Gogebic Area


Subscribe:


Episode 22 - The U.P. is a top destination for snowmobiling. I head to Bergland to rent a snowmobile for the day to learn how to drive one (my first time driving) and hitch a ride in the local trail groomer. And the weekend of Feb 11-12 is the first ever FREE snowmobiling weekend in Michigan, and BRP hosted the first ever International Snowmobile Ride Day. A whole lot of firsts for snowmobiling here!
