Extractions: Snowmobiling has become controversial in a number of National Parks, National Forests, and other public lands in the United States. The most widely publicized controversy concerns Yellowstone National Park. By the year 2000, visitors were making about 75,000 snowmobile trips and 1,300 snowcoach trips into the Park during a 100 day period each winter. Over 60 percent of these visitors were entering the Park through the West Entrance, from the town of West Yellowstone. On peak days over 1,000 snowmobiles were using this entrance, where conditions often include dense, cold, stable air that is conducive to high air pollution levels. Rules and Regulations Go to the Publications and Links section for a more complete list, including related or overlapping topics. In February 2000 the National Park Service summarized available information and reports related to the air quality impacts of snowmobiles: National Park Service Air Resources Division.

"The time has come for the National Park System to pull in its welcome mat for recreational snowmobiling," said an Interior Department official. Based upon existing regulations, they are to be excluded because they are not consistent with the purpose of National Parks. They account for much of the worsening air pollution problems, are too noisy, and disrupt wildlife. Given the National Park System's role in maintaining representative natural vegetation and wildlife, this move is long past due. g.b.

Extractions: WHAT TO KNOW Snowmobiling is allowed on the frozen surface of the St. Croix River, with some exceptions, on designated snowmobile trails sponsored by the state, county, or clubs and designated river crossings. The National Park Service adopts and enforces all state laws as applicable. St. Croix River: Snowmobiles can travel on the frozen river surface from Prescott to the Osceola Bridge and from St. Croix Falls to Riverside. Snowmobiling from the Highway 243 bridge at Osceola, Wisconsin north to the Xcel Energy Hydroelectric Dam at St. Croix Falls is prohibited at all times due to unsafe ice. Travel is also prohibited from the Highway 35 bridge at Riverside, north to Gordan Dam. Namekagon River : Snowmobiles may cross the river at locations along designated trails, but may not travel the length of the river. WHAT TO KNOW The St. Croix and Namekagon rivers do not freeze uniformly, currents, springs, water depth, and water level fluctuations because of the dams, all contribute to ice that can be thick or thin within short distances. Use caution and pay attention for thin ice when travelling on the river.

Extractions: Groups: Winter rule weakens wildlife protection By BRODIE FARQUHAR Star-Tribune staff writer Rather than protect wildlife from snowmobile disturbance, Yellowstone National Park officials have engaged in regulatory subterfuge by selectively removing National Park Service (NPS) regulations that ban wildlife disturbance in a Winter Use Plan now open for public comment, national conservation groups charge. But John Sacklin, chief of park planning at Yellowstone, denied any intent to weaken wildlife protections and said these comments would be considered during a public comment period that ends Oct. 14. The groups say under the plan, wildlife along snowmobile routes in Yellowstone would have a lower level of protection than wildlife anywhere else within the National Park Service System. At present, federal regulations prohibit the disturbance of wildlife in any national park. And while Park Service officials said similar language would be retained in proposed rules associated with the new Winter Use Plan, such is not the case, conservation groups say. Indeed, they say such language has been explicitly superseded and does not reappear elsewhere in the rules and regulations. However, the rules and regulations provide that future snowmobile routes cannot result in wildlife disturbances. But conservation groups are concerned that the net effect of the language is that wildlife will not be protected on current snowmobile routes.

Extractions: A snowmobile may be operated on the right-of-way of a public highway (except a limited-access highway) if it is operated at the extreme right of the open portion of the right-of-way and with the flow of traffic on the highway. Snowmobiles operated on a road right-of-way must travel in single file and shall not be operated abreast except when overtaking or passing another snowmobile. A snowmobile may be operated on the roadway or shoulder when necessary to cross a bridge or culvert if the snowmobile is brought to a complete stop before entering onto the roadway or shoulder and the operator yield the right-of-way to any approaching motor vehicle on the highway. A snowmobile may be operated across a public highway, other than a limited access highway, at right angles to the highway for the purpose of getting from one area to another when the operation can be done safely and another vehicle is not crossing the highway at the same time in the immediate area. An operator must bring his/her snowmobile to a complete stop before proceeding across the public highway and must yield the right-of-way to all oncoming traffic.
