Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Polluting Snow mobiles should be banned from Yellowstone Park Between 500-1000 of these machines ride throught the park daily in the Winter.
Polluting noisy 2-stroke Snowmobiles were definitely having quite an adverse effect in Yellowstone by the late 1990s and a few years ago (to much opposition from the snowmobile operators) the Park Service banned them and would only allow in a limited number (which is now currently up to 500 per day) of much quieter and cleaner snowmobiles powered by 4-stroke engines into the Park (even though the operators argued at the time that 4 stroke snowmobiles would be underpowered and impractical). In fact undoubtedly the banning of 2 stroke snowmobiles inside the Park drove the development of practical cleaner quieter 4-stroke snowmobiles, as even the snowmobile enthusiasts will acknowledge e.g see
