Who owns
the land the trails are on?
Vermont's
snowmobiling season starts on December 16th, after hunting
season, and ends in mid April, snow permitting. Vermont's
northern location receives an average of 100-250 inches of snow,
and with its high elevations, it often means that rain in
southern New England falls as snow here.
Eighty percent
of Vermont's trail system is on private land. Snowmobiling is a
privilege and is permitted only through the traditional
generosity of thousands of property owners. Respecting the land
by showing courtesy and not littering will ensure that New
England's best trail system remains open for years to come.
How is it
possible to ride on private land?
Landowner
permission is required to ride on private land. Local clubs
obtain landowner permission for trails on private property. All
riders in Vermont must belong to VAST and a local club to ride
legally in the state. There is a substantial fine for riding
without a TMA.
VAST
trails are for winter use only!
Permission to
use snowmobile trails does not extend to use of these trails by
ATVs, four-wheelers, motor or mountain bikes, hiking or other
uses, unless specifically authorized. A VAST trail is a trail
only during the snow season; any other use will be considered
trespassing. Please respect the rights of the landowners and
remember to say thank you.
