Todd McViney (past employee) organizes an annual event at Elk Lake Resort that celebrates the marriage of the two cultures.  Dubbed CrossOver Revolution, McViney invites backcountry riders and skiers to mix with snowmobilers.  Think of it as Camp David for two very different populations of backcountry enthusiast.

The idea was to combine backcountry skier’s snow and avalanche expertise with the snowmobiling community’s mechanical know-how over a weekend of backcountry exploration and basecamp revelry.

Last year the event drew several dozen backcountry enthusiasts who swapped knowledge, stories and stoke.  This year, McViney expects close to 100 people for the event that features daytime missions into the backcountry plus a tow-in quarter pipe that serves as added evening entertainment!
