12k for me. Top of medicine bow peak.
What is the highest elevation a snowmobile has gone?
- Thread starter polaris dude
- Start date
Back in 96 I rode the frozen river here at 3300 ft and then went to Brian Head Utah at 11,307 ft without any jetting or clutching changes. This was on my 96 600 Yamaha ST.

Been there too, nice view!
I've rode at Vail pass and it is up there.
I believe Snowy Mountain Lodge up by Green Rock is 10,000 feet and we ride up from there.
If you are ever back, hit me up and I'll show you the good spots (well, some of them)!
Will do. We we're with a local and he took us in some cool spots however always game to hook up with locals that know their way around.

It was about 1970 when a guy riding a Homelite snowmobile reached the summit of Mount Saint Helens. He went right up the Shoestring glacier. The summit was 9677 feet back then. About a 6500 foot climb from the base of the mountain.
He lost it coming back down. He lost both his boots and both his gloves. He spent a few days in the hospital with a broken leg and most of his fingers worn down to the bones at the tips from trying to stop his slide down the hill. The homelite was scattered in pieces all the way down.
His riding partner who had stopped about half way up used two screwdrivers, one in each hand, as ice picks to make his way to the injured rider. He found one of the homelite's skis and used it to splint the broken leg.

I think this one may be a contender for highest altitude.
