History

The BC Snowmobile Federation was formed in 1965 by a small group of snowmobile racers.  The original purposes as set out in our constitution was to develop an organization that was dedicated to safety, the growth of the sport, protection of the environment and securing access to public lands for all. The BCSF has been campaigning for the preservation of riding areas since its inception.

The BCSF no longer has racing roots but the founding principles have carried the Federation forward more than 50 years.  The BCSF now collectively represents 60 snowmobile clubs and 44,000 riders in the Province of BC. On the ground, our member clubs are non-profit societies maintained by caring volunteers who promote safety, stewardship, and responsible backcountry snowmobile recreation.
