MUGGS S.N.O.W.FEST – WHY YOU NEED TO GO

MUGGS S.N.O.W.fest (Somewhere North Of Wahkon) was created in 2013 by snowmobile fanatics who love everything about snowmobiling. Guys who have just two hobbies: 1) Snowmobiling and 2) Talking about snowmobiling. This event combines both! All in support of the local snowmobile clubs in the Mille Lacs, Mn area.

Held Saturday, December 10, 2022, whether there is snow -or- no snow, it is a celebration of all things snowmobiling. You can soak up all the new 2022 snowmobile action films, vintage sled rally, live and silent auctions, snowmobile trivia, prize drawings, and the best part, the admission is free for all!

This year, for the Live Auction at SNOWFEST, Les Pinz has donated a tour of his private snowmobile museum with food and beverage catered by MUGGS.

Les raced for both Scorpion and Polaris, and exudes a wealth of snowmobile knowledge and stories. See more photos of Les’ snowmobiles below…we’ve highlighted some of his Arctic Cat branded collection.

Les’ museum is impressive and you can read an exclusive ArcticInsider story about Les HERE as a pre-cursor to the event. The Pinz museum has hundreds of sleds, dozens of snowmobile innovations and prototypes, accessories and gear spanning decades. Les loves the sport of snowmobiling and his enthusiasm is contagious as he shares stories of evolution of snowmobiling.

This is a great event for a club, a group of collectors or a bunch of friends. Tour accommodates up to 16 people. Proceeds benefit Mille Lacs Area trail improvements.

The SNOWfest vintage rally attracts some pretty rare snowmobiles of all types including these SnoPros.
