The Great Falls Snowmobile Club has been active since the early 1970's. It works in conjunction with the Meagher County Little Belters in White Sulphur Springs, through the Kings Hill Grooming Assocaition, to keep our trails open and groomed in the Kings Hill Recreational area. The club hosts monthly meetings, cookouts, rides, a benefit ride for Farm in the Dell of Great Falls, and the Smokin' Grass Drags in the fall. It is an exciting club with many activities. Come join us in riding what Snowest magazine listed as the best place to ride in Montana in a fall 2005 issue.
