I just want to suggest for those who are concerned about snowmobiles and their effect on the environment, they should take a look at the 1,790,000 vans, buses, automobiles, motorcycles, RVs, SUVs, trucks that are rumbling through Yellowstone. If they are really concerned, take a look at that impact on the environment and not pick on the snowmobile, which is well in compliance with the air quality and noise requirements of the National Park Service.
