Winter Driving

Snow tires and four-wheel-drive are recommended for traveling in Eastern Idaho during the winter. Road conditions can change quickly, and even well-traveled highways are occasionally closed by blizzards or high winds.
Before setting out, check the Transportation Department’s website (511.idaho.gov) or call 511 for an automated, up-to-the-minute status of all thoroughfares.

Wise motorists will also carry emergency gear (shovel, snack bars, water, blankets) in their vehicles to be ready for any contingency.

Coming Snowmobiling?

A reminder to anyone traveling backcountry areas whether skiing, snowmobiling or hiking: Remember the time of year, exercising all back country cautions. Take necessary equipment and survival gear when venturing into the back country.

If you have a GPS and cell phone, be sure to take them with you, but do not rely on them entirely for a safe rescue if you find yourself in trouble or stranded. Cell phones should be kept close to your body & turned off to keep the battery full, so it’s not searching for a signal & running the battery down.

Avalanche Transceivers and equipment, knowing what the avalanche conditions are, and knowing skills to save lives are a must for everyone entering back country riding or traveling.

Plan ahead. Make sure you know the area you are going into before heading into it.  If you find yourself in trouble, stop, take a look around you, and do not go any further. The further you go the more complicated and dangerous it is to get yourself to safety, also making rescue efforts more difficult and dangerous. Make mental notes in relation to any physical features or landmarks that would assist in your rescue.

Make a plan, stick to your plan, narrow the riding area, & most of all…let someone know WHERE you are planning to go!
