Quilt Lady and I first got into snowmobiling in 2005 after retiring here from MA, and we really enjoy the sport. (Island Girl introduced us to it!) We really enjoy sledding the many area trails, and out across the frozen lake when the ice is safe and there's a snow cover on it.
You've gotten some good suggestions from others here, such as not venturing out by yourself. You never know when a mishap or breakdown can occur, and in the winter weather you don't want to be alone if that happens. All the area snowmobile clubs offer trail maps (at a moderate cost), and they are well worth it. It's also a good idea to take a GPS and cell phone with you so if you do encounter a problem you can notify others of your location.
