Welcome to the

Nevis Trailblazers Snowmobile Club

Our club meets from October to April on the first Saturday of each month at 7:00 pm at Bethany Lutheran Church in Nevis, MN. Join us for updates, club news, treats, and even a fun game of bingo after the meeting! Everyone is welcome.

Our events include:

  • Organized snowmobile rides during the winter season.

  • An annual Christmas party in December.

  • Two club outings in nearby communities.

  • Spring clean-up and autumn trail brushing of the Wilder Trails.

Since our founding in 1967, the Nevis Trailblazers have proudly maintained and groomed local trails. What began with a simple wooden drag behind a Polaris snowmobile has evolved into a high-tech grooming operation with our 2014 turbocharged, diesel-powered Tucker Sno Cat. Each week, we groom approximately 245 miles of trails, including those in the Paul Bunyan State Forest, the Wilder Trails, and portions of the Heartland Recreational Trail.

Our trails connect to the Heartland State Trail from Park Rapids to Walker and open up access to Bemidji and beyond, along with stunning trails through the Paul Bunyan State Forest and the fast-sweeping paths from Park Rapids to Emmaville, Cass Lake, Dorset, and Akeley. By staying on designated trails and respecting the land, you help us keep these paths open for everyone.

Experience the adventure and camaraderie that only the Nevis Trailblazers Snowmobile Club can offer. Join us today and be part of our rich legacy and vibrant community!
