West Yellowstone and Yellowstone National Park are both famous and infamous-famous for their snowmobiling and infamous for all the issues surrounding snowmobiling in the Park. So, for West Yellowstone to stay on top is quite an accomplishment. Even though the best snowmobiling opportunities are outside of Yellowstone National Park, people relate the park's accessibility to riding opportunities. And with all the negative and misleading publicity surrounding the Park, it's bound to affect the community. However, West Yellowstone has been pretty resilient through it all and manages to still attract a fair amount of sledders, who are still finding the same great riding as there has always been around the area.
You would expect nothing else from the Snowmobile Capital of the World. Champions always rise to the occasion.
