Welcome to the Kamloops Snowmobile Association

As an organization we aim to bring safe and fun family snowmobiling to the areas we manage.we are powered (100%) by volunteers and work to keep riding areas open, accessible, and safe. Annually we groom hundreds of kilometers trails, and actively manage 2 riding areas. The organization also maintains and provides emergency warm up shelters in these riding areas. The KSA’s riding zones are:

Tranquille/Bonaparte Plateau (Porcupine Ridge) and Sunpeaks (Todd Mountain)

Our Operation

The Kamloops Snowmobile Association operates in partnership with Rec Sites and Trails BC (RSTBC), and the British Columbia Snowmobile Federation. The KSA Grooms in two ridings areas immediate to Kamloops. These trails serve as either rideable loops or access points into off trail boondocking and sub-alpine low slope terrain opportunities. We operate a BR 180 snow cat with a custom drag behind it and a Ski-Doo Skandic with a miniature clone of the large drag. These two pieces make up the majority of weekly grooming operations, with a few smaller drags used behind volunteer’s snowmobiles occasionally across the season. The KSA maintains a fleet of small tools and equipment to clear and brush the trails for rider safety. Annual membership ranges between 350-400 members from Kamloops and the surrounding communities.

Our Website is currently under construction. Thank you for your patience. We are looking forward to a great 2024 - 2025 Season

Our Facilities

Under our Partnership with RSTBC (Rec Sites and Trails BC) and BC Parks the KSA is responsible for maintenance and operation of 10 “emergency warm-up shelters”. These small cabins are public access and maintained in the area to provide safe shelter if required in an emergency. These facilities also serve as a place for riders to stop, rest, and socialize in our riding areas. The KSA also holds one of few Agreements with BC parks to snowmobile inside 3 provincial parks, Porcupine Meadows, Tsintsunko Lake, and Bonaparte Lake.
