Frequently Asked Questions
Click the question below
How Does a Self-Guided Snowmobile Rental Work vs. a Guided Tour?
At Jackson Hole Adventure Rentals we specialize in Self-Guided Snowmobile Rentals. We provide all of the equipment, maps and directions as well as local knowledge required to send you on your own snowmobile adventure. Out of our Jackson location you will tow a trailer loaded with your equipment to one of our many trail-head options including the popular Granite Hot Springs or the extensive trail network inside of the Bridger Teton National Forest. We can provide a complete package including a tow vehicle if you do not have a vehicle capable of towing. If you would prefer not to trailer the snowmobiles to a trail-head out of Jackson we offer our Alpine location with direct ride on access to the Grey’s River Trail system. Our Self Guided tours are great for every skill level including beginner up to expert, so you can ride at your own pace. At Jackson Hole Adventure rentals we provide an affordable alternative to expensive guided tours.
Guided tours typically include multiple groups of guests headed to a preset destination at the guide’s pace.
How old do Drivers and Passengers Need to Be?
Drivers need to be 16 or up to drive our Crossover/Performance/Touring snowmobiles. These snowmobiles are very powerful, and we strongly suggest inexperienced younger drivers start out as a passenger.
Drivers need to be 18 or up to drive our High Performance snowmobiles.
Passengers should be 6 and up.
Drivers and passengers under 18 must have a parent/guardian release form signed.
What is a Tow Vehicle? Age Requirements?
Out of our Jackson location you are required to tow the snow machines to a trail-head. If you do not have a vehicle that can tow we can provide one for you for $90+tax per day. Our tow vehicles are available for 8:30 am to 5:00 pm rentals only. If you plan on a multiple day rental we offer Large SUVs for towing.
You must be 21 or older in order to rent a tow vehicle. We offer an optional $24 per day $1,000.00 deductible damage waiver on the tow vehicle.
Tow vehicles will leave full of fuel and will need to be returned fully fueled. Our tow vehicles are a crew cab truck.
Our Tow vehicles can tow between 1 snowmobile and 6 snowmobiles (larger trailers require previous towing experience).
Is there a way to limit liability in the case of damage?
We offer optional damage waivers on all of our equipment, which can be purchased for $25 for Touring or Crossover snowmobiles or $35 for Performance Matrix 650 or High Performance Snowmobiles. This limits your liability to $1,000 in parts and labor and limits loss of use to no more than 5 days. Recovery charges do apply if staff is required to retrieve the machine during your rental. We strongly suggest purchasing this coverage, as most people do not have any other kind of coverage for this type of equipment.
What is the Difference between the National Park and National Forest?
The National Forest provides the most access with the least amount of restrictions for self-guided snow machine rentals. For our rentals out of Jackson and Alpine our trail-heads are located inside of the Bridger-Teton National Forest system. At both locations we provide detailed maps and directions based on your preferred riding area.
The National Park system offers limited self guiding options and includes Yellowstone and the Grand Teton National park. To operate in these parks you need to have a BAT (Best approved technology) snow machine as well as a proper permit issued by the National Park service. These permits are done based on a lottery system typically in the October/ November time period. If you do not have a permit and wish to visit Yellowstone you will need to take a Guided Tour. We do not offer guided tours.
Follow this link to apply for your self guided Yellowstone lottery permit: https://www.nps.gov/yell/planyourvisit/ncgsap.htm Lottery applications are accepted August 1 to 31
Why would I choose Alpine over Jackson? Or Vice versa
Jackson Hole Adventure Rentals offers two locations to better serve our guests.
Our Jackson Hole location offers great access to both the Granite Hot Springs trail system and the extensive trail network at Togwotee. Out of our Jackson location you are required to tow the snowmobiles to the trail systems. We recommend customers be comfortable towing equipment on snow covered roads if renting out of this location. The Granite Hot Springs trail system is located 22 miles South of our shop. Togwotee is located 50 miles North of our shop. We offer only full day rentals out of our Jackson location.
Our shop in Alpine Wyoming is located a mile away from the Grey’s River Trail system inside the Bridger Teton National Forest. You can ride directly out of our shop onto the trail system. We offer both 1/2 and full day options out of this location. This is a great option for those that would prefer not to trailer, load, or unload the the snowmobiles. Alpine is located 35 miles south of Jackson with a beautiful drive through the Snake River Canyon.
Both locations offer a wide variety of skill level riding. From beginner to experienced mountain riding, our customer service agents can point you in the right direction.
