280. Snowmobile
A snowmobile is a motorised vehicle designed primarily for travelling over snow and ice. It typically uses one or more skis at the front for steering and a powered continuous track at the rear for propulsion.
Snowmobiles are commonly used for winter recreation, transport, rescue work and access to remote snowy areas. Where they may be operated depends on local rules concerning trails, public roads, protected areas and vehicle registration.
