Team Thunderstruck enjoys what all sledders enjoy in the area with enormous amounts of Powder combined with accessibility to the amazing terrain that blankets the region. For that reason some of the segments are shot in the area during the winter season. Fitting for Team Thunderstruck to want to give back to to the network that support every snowmobilers passion and in doing so raising much needed funds on this evening.
Revelstoke Snowmobile Club enters into its 45th year of operations and remains the largest organized Snowmobile club in the Province under the British Columbia Snowmobile Federation. Its members are passionate about all the issues facing long term sustainability and of course riders safety.
