Back when my Dad had snowmobiles, back in the 1980's, on more than one occasion we would have someone come right up the trail to our house, and turn around on our front lawn. Dad used to say it was a good thing the garage door was closed...
Sorry for your damage, and I suggest contacting the Mt. Major Snowmobile Club
http://www.mountmajorsnowmobileclub.com/ and let them know what has happened and ask if it is possible for you to get "no snowmobile" signs for your property. I certainly would understand posting your property, and hopefully can be done at no cost to you.

You are right, Uppy!
To get into snowmobiling in the first place, people spend lots of money.
Sleds, trailers, outfits, accessorries, "just to mention a few".
Then comes Lodging, fuel and some more.
Then comes... " ( NO SNOW ) !!!"
People do not like to see all of this, "MONEY SPENT" , and not having enough left in there budget, to travel to where the ( SNOW IS ) !
( thus, they tend and will ride, where the SNOW ISN'T! ).... And, If you do not Believe me,........ ( Simply return to this thread )!
Simply put,... there hasn't been enough snow here, to ride on, "UNless, you would like to tare up Peoples stairways, and, or property!
Us snowmobilers, enjoyed a good snowmobile season here in 2002....... " I have not registerd or taken a ride on my snowmobile since then, " due to the lack of "SNOW, and I couldn't afford to load up and travel to where it was!"
My point......... "SNOWMOBILES WERE DESIGNED FOR SNOW."
PS... You may tire of riding on the Great Lake if there is enough snow over the ice to keep your sleds engine cool, but if you find that you would like to enjoy some food,, go to a movie, get gas, or what ever. If your riding a snowmobile and there isn't enough SNOW, PARK IT, and or take the car, and don't even be afraid to Walk!.... ( PLEASE USE BRAIN POWER )
Thank you,
