snowmobiling

in the bighorn mountains

Let us create the best possible snowmobile trip you can have.

First mountain Range going west.

The Bighorn Mountains are one of the closest snowmobiling destinations to the upper-midwest that offer true mountain riding. Most of our clients come from North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. The Bighorns have two major interstates that meet right at the foot of the mountains; I-90 & I-25. Sheridan, Wyoming is the closest town with daily flights via United Airlines from Denver. Billings, Montana is the closest major airport about two hours away.

About Us

Jeff Shanor - Owner/Guide

Hi, I’m Jeff. The owner of this guide company. I’ve been riding snow toboggans since birth essentially. My old man threw me on a sled the moment I left the hospital. He had a sledding addiction and (un)fortunately it’s genetic. So here I am, with a snowmobile guide company, chasing my dream. I can’t really think of what else I was born to do in this life, so thank you for your support and making my dreams a reality. Since I can’t make money day dreaming about snowmobiling and winter doesn’t last forever, I pick up a camera from time to time working with amazing clients in the outdoor industry documenting adventures and creating content. Looking forward to hitting the snow with you!

Anna Zowada - Guide

Anna is the newest to snowmobiling among our team, but you would never be able to tell. She has the (un)fortunate situation of being Jeff’s girlfriend, and I already admitted a snowmobiling addiction is genetic, but it’s also contagious. I took Anna on her first snowmobile experience four years ago. It would’ve been our first date if it wouldn’t have been summer when we met. I knew she was a keeper when she complained her naturally aspirated 850 didn’t have enough power. Now she’s all about that turbo life and this little stud muffin landed a 509 sponsorship her 2nd year into riding. Watch out for this one! We don’t call her “Anna Hauls Balls” for no reason!

Anthony Kluesner - Guide

“Big Tony” as some may call him, is our newest guide in the Sled Wyo family. I’ve never met someone so unafraid of the throttle as Anthony before. If the throttle is your friend, then Anthony’s throttle is his spouse. Sometimes they have disagreements, other times, it’s a poetic matrimony of love and passion. We give Anthony a hard time for being the only Polaris rider in the family, but it’s all in good fun. If only he had to opportunity to ever dish it back to us Ski-Doo riders, I’m sure he would let us have it. We’ll never know! When Anthony isn’t pulling skis, his, or clients, he’s a welder, looking to join the self-employed world himself!

riley sessions - Owner/Guide #ellasdad

The wild child. Riley is an “OG” guide here at Sled Wyo, being one of the first. Riley and I began riding in high school together. When I found out Riley rode sleds it was kind of like that scene in Step Brothers when Dale & Brennan become best friends, but instead of karate in the garage, we went snowmobiling. Riley is probably the smoothest rider I’ve ever rode with. Mr.Flow should be his nickname. Previously being a D1 athlete in football, you can see his athleticism translate on a sled. When he’s not whipping his sled or pulling skis, he owns his own trucking business. You might even spot him on the road!
