In fact this phase is essential il" the owner is to acquire any degree of skill in operating his sled. Nevertheless, the time prevails when families begin to take extended trips seeing more of the countryside during this beautiful time of the year. Often these excursions in- volve caravans of five or more vehicles and go for many miles into areas inaccessible to the vast majority of people.

Never yield to the temptation of 'testing' ice with your snowmobile. Weight distribution of a 400 Ib. 'machine plus a driver weighing another 200 lbs. could make you a statistic. No one has ever guaranteed ice of any thickness will support a snowmobile any- where. Always Inspect Unfamiliar Terrain Before Proceeding. Unless you are on a marked trail or familiar ground, be super cautious even when following existing tracks. Travel so you see what is around the next bend or over the top of the hill. Never drive your snowmo- bile ovér a cliff or bank. Learn to recognize all snow- mobile trail signs. After Dark Night time snow- mobiling is delightful but reduced visibility makes it imperative that you use headlight and' tail lights. NEVER ride alone at night. Find a friend with a machine who has a reputation as a safe, sensible driver. Before you start your ride, be sure that your lights are clean and operational. (Don't de- pend on that moon!) AVOID all river and lake crossings and don't break new trails. DONT overdrive your head- lights. DRIVE at speeds that will allow you to stop if a dangerous object appears. STAY on established trails. Guy wires, barbed wire fen- ces, cabled road entrances and other low objects can be especially dangerous at night. CARRY a flashlight for emergencies.

The rubber bottom-leather top . boots or the rubber bottom-nylon top boots with heavy felt liners are the best suited to snowmobiling. They provide good foot trac- tion and also the necessary warmth. Adding wool socks gives your feet additional protection as the tempera- ture goes down.
