Cause
The Eagle Valley Snowmobile Club (EVSC) in Sicamous, BC was officially incorporated as a non-profit society in 1990, although the club’s informal history can be traced back over 65 years. The first emergency shelter for snowmobilers was built on Queest Mountain in 1976, and over the past several decades the club has also taken on the responsibility of grooming the snowmobile trails and maintaining the emergency shelters on Eagle Pass, Owlhead and Blue Lake. The club is responsible for the maintenance of over 100 km of snowmobile trails and four shelters under our Partnership Agreement with Rec Sites & Trails (RSTBC). With over 400 active members, we are currently one of the largest organized snowmobile clubs in the province of BC, and we are considered by our community to be an integral component of the winter tourism economy.
Maintenance and grooming on snowmobile trails provides a designated route for outdoor recreationalists to safely access the alpine backcountry and for them to return home at the end of their excursions. While grooming during the winter is the club’s primary responsibility, we are also responsible for maintaining the trails and parking areas throughout the off-season. Additionally, the club is responsible for stocking the shelters with firewood and supplies, and for maintenance and repairs as needed. To keep up with the work, our fleet of vehicles currently includes five snowcats, three service trucks, one flat-deck truck, one snowplow, and one snowmobile.
The EVSC was founded by volunteers and continues to rely heavily on volunteers to remain active and financially sustainable. As the club has grown significantly since its inception, we now also employ 10-15 full-time and part-time seasonal employees who perform maintenance and who collect trail fees. Our employees are essential to our ability to consistently provide high-quality trail grooming throughout the winter and for ensuring the safety of everyone using the trails.
