  • Ever wonder how the trails at Stratton get edge to edge corduroy? Follow the snow cat operators as they hit the slopes after the lifts close.

    Oh that yellow… it’s been such a long time since i’ve seen it on a 350! Still have a 23 year old bombardier 275 in that yellow, and boy it still looks great

    Awesome! I have been looking around trying to find info on what it takes to be a grooming operator I would really like to emigrate from England to a ski resort and do this job. I have a fair bit of experience using 360 excavators and have also done some dozer work. What would be your recommendation to getting a grooming job. Thanks Josh

      +joshcowin5 Hello, I´m a grooming operator in Norway. My advise to you is to get some grooming hours. Get in touch with small resorts or slopes and ask them if you could ride along with some operators and then you can learn how to drive it. If you have some hours in a snowcat then it´s much easier to get a job. It´s good that you are familiar engine and some machines but it´s a own technique to drive a snowcat and push snow where it´s needed. Hope you can follow your dream and get in a Snowcat! :)

      Luckily i’ve never had any drunks approach me *yet.* my policy is no rides anyways unless i know exactly who they are. I sid have to help a few kids try to restart their snowmobile, but i couldnt get it going, so i just helped them push it put of my way
