There's no cellphone service in the area, so you'll have to get directions manually, that's the only downside to this placeCheckin was great, signed waivers, Got snowsuits, helmets, even goggles, and we were off to the safety course.The guide goes on and teaches you the basics, how to turn on, kill switch etcthen we all hop on get driving in circles, another lesson, group breaks up for a bit, more practice then the groups rejoin, Then you have the time of your life, sick views, great trails, awesome guides,This was my first time on a snowmobile ever, I was terrified and nervous in the beginning, the guide scares you that people crash and get hurt because they didn't follow the rules, but then again the rules are simple, logic and not hard at all to followAll in all 5 stars
We are a family of six adults and booked the performance tour even though we had only been on snowmobiles once in the past. The midday tour provided a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains. I believe the morning tour would have been a better choice however, because by midday the trails are somewhat like "wash boards" and a bit more difficult to maneuver smoothly. The guide went at the group's pace and was very pleasant while providing lots of information about the area.All-in-all, we would do it again. The day was beautiful--blue skies, fresh snow, and no wind.
We chose the prospect tour, which is about 2 hours, they came pick us up in time and took us to the base camp where you could get extra gear and helmets. Mario our guide was super fun and always watching that everyone was ok. We went through some overlooks where we stopped to take pictures and then through trees. We really enjoyed it!
We had such a great time. I was a little nervous at first but the crew were so kind and caring. They were able to keep me calm and I gave it a go. Their main priority is safety and it really shows. They also enjoy what they are doing and want others to enjoy snowmobiling too! Thanks to Karwyin for such an awesome time!
My fiancé and I decided to take a go at snowmobiling while we were staying in Copper. White Mountain picked us up with their van and it was about a 15 minute ride to their place. We got checked in and they direct you to grab some boots, helmets, goggles, snow suits, all of which they provide!!! Awesome! They even had guys checking to make sure you had the right size helmet, super helpful. After we were all suited up, we headed outside and got to know our snowmobiles. It was a quick 10 minute instructional on how to use your snowmobile. After that we headed out to the practice field where we practiced for about 15 mins. My group which was the performance tour had 4 people in it and we had Allan as our guide. He was awesome, fun, and patient. Since it had snowed all weekend, we had gotten stuck a couple times. Allan dug us out and gave us high fives. The tour was an amazing experience!! Make sure you wear your warmest gloves! We rode for about 1.5 hours up to the top, I think he said over 12,000 feet, then we headed back down. We parked our snowmobiles when we were finished and headed back inside to check out. Our van driver was waiting for us and drove us back to copper. We can't wait to come back!
I have never been snowmobiling. We did a mom and daughter outing with friends. The snowmobiles were easy to use. The scenery was phenomenal and it was a great time. Anyone can ride these. Our guide was awesome and made sure everyone level had a great time.
Our day started out a bit slow with over 50 snowmobilers getting the safety talk and taking slow laps on the practice track which had me concerned. However, once they broke the people out into smaller groups, it was myself, my two sons and one other guy with our Performance tour. Sean was our tour guide and was wonderful. The machines are newer Polaris brand and had hand warmers which was nice. Despite it being snowy, the scenery was still spectacular. I can imagine how nice a sunny day would be. The check in process was pretty easy and I'd recommend this to anyone looking for an alternative to skiing for a day. The Performance tour was perfect for myself and my two teenage sons. It is not overly challenging and was the perfect balance for us.
Me and my son, who had never been snowmobiling decided in a whim to try it. We booked the performance tour.They picked us up. Once in base camp they made sure everyone was well dressed. The equipment and safety and basic riding overview was very thorough. The training runs allowed everyone to be sure they were comfortable with the ride. A few riders elected to hop on back of a guides sled after the training course. We went through trees and above the tree line. I can't say enough about the scenery.Out tour guide, "Melrose" was exceptional. He balanced making sure we were OK with allowing us to freelance a bit.
We recently had a group of 11 in Breckenridge. The group consisted of ages 5 thru 65, so it was a diverse age group. After calling and speaking with someone at Summit Concierge, they recommended the Prospector tour for us. It was perfect! I was surprised at how many opportunities we had to "give it some gas" and really pick up some speed. There is the practice area at the beginning where you have a few minutes to play around before hitting the trails. The two kids in our group absolutely loved the mini snowmobiles that they got to drive.Once on the trails, the guide let us get up and go often, especially on the long straight runs. Then you go to an open field and get to play around for a while.All in all, it was a great experience, and I definitely recommend it to anyone looking to snowmobile. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Our guide was great; made sure everyone was comfortable and safe and also had a lot of fun.
White Mountain Tours does a great job of providing a safe and fun look at some remote and beautiful places. On a mild day in January we took a tour around Turquoise Lake and rode up trails and into the woods for some spectacular mountain scenery. We were patiently taught how to use the equipment and thanks to our guide soon felt comfortable and secure enough to maneuver through even some tight spots. It was a beautiful day and a fun and exciting afternoon on the mountain. I would highly recommend White Mountain tours!
