You might think about renting a 2-up,  from what I understand it's a pretty slow long boring ride across very flat trails with a guide and very anal parks employees

I’m not going anytime soon.  I have to see if I still have a job in the next month or two, which is why I don’t have a new sled already in the back of my truck.  It might be such a pain in the ass with Regs I just cross that off the bucket list.

Since were talking sleds ..... Are their any types that are a complete stay away from? And I’m talking more used than new.

Ya, but the list is fairly extensive.  If you find one feel free to ask about it, might be the easier way. 

Or what exactly is that you want to do with it?

New-ish sleds of any Polaris/ski-don’t/arctic cat have all made quality sleds in the last 7-10 years (maybe longer) IMO Polaris had an edge over the others before that for mountain sleds anyways. You can find a used sled that fits your desired use fairly cheap. Mines 15 years old and makes me smile all day!

I'm pretty sure skidoo etec two strokes are approved by the park service, I think they are the only approved two strokes.

Don’t want to thread jack MountainWalks thread so I’ll post here.

Just recently bought a 1998 Ski Doo 670 MXZ RAVE, 898 miles on it. From the second owner, not all beat up, seat is pristine, windshield was cracked on the low right side fixed with zip ties ( and it was a good job), foam padding on the front of the bars had been repaired good as well.

Only things I saw wrong with it. Starts really easy, just wasn’t ridden a lot, or beat on IMO.

A friend of mine had it so I’ve been eyeballing it for several years thinking I sure would like that, well he’s moving so he sold it.👍

Haven’t ridden it yet, no snow low, won’t go out in the mountains till I get a spare belt.😉

Got to ride it at the house yesterday afternoon, wow it’s has get up and go.

Been awhile since I’ve ridden anything with a two stroke power house.🤣

Have some more prepping to do before I go out ridding off the property.

Word of caution, don't park it facing downhill.  That era of SkiDoo's had a habit of flooding when parked downhill and the dreaded "Rotax Aerobics" exercise was needed to restart.
