snowmobile
Motorized snow transport
A snowmobile is a motorized vehicle designed for travel over snow and ice, with skis in front and a continuous rubber track in back.
Snowmobiles are used for recreation, racing, and practical transportation in remote winter areas: We rented snowmobiles to explore the backcountry.
As a verb, to snowmobile is to ride one.
