"Electric snowmobiles are silent, which allows adventurers a serene and unforgettable experience in the Teton mountains" said Dave Knaus, Owner of OFF-GRID Experiences Jackson Hole. "FLO chargers keep our sleds charged up and on the trail. But they also are helping ensure the breathtaking landscapes we explore today remain pristine for generations to come."

OFF-GRID Experiences Jackson Hole provides guided, educational snowmobile tours and now offers customers a chance to ride the first Ski-Doo electric snowmobiles made by BRP. The electric snowmobiles have a range of 20 miles and are charged overnight by FLO Home chargers. Riders can book a 2-hour tour of the Turpin Meadow Trail and excursions throughout the Teton Mountains.

"Bringing the most durable EV chargers—which can operate in temperatures as low as -40°F—to Jackson Hole will revolutionize outdoor recreation that respects and protects the natural beauty of places like Wyoming," said Nathan Yang, FLO Chief Product Officer. "Our EV chargers are helping power up OFF-GRID to make adventuring a clean, environmentally friendly experience."

The FLO Home charger is built to withstand extreme climates from severely cold Canadian winters to sweltering southern U.S. summers and has recently received praise when tested by several independent experts.

For the first time in 2024, Ski-Doo introduces new electric snowmobiles: the Grand Touring Electric model. The sled enables an emissions-free winter adventure and offers a unique ride that is inviting for first timers to experience the world of snowmobiling. Powered by proprietary Rotax E-Power technology, these snowmobiles are designed and purpose-built exclusively for Uncharted Society experience outfitters and tour operators with features, power and range optimized for guided snowmobile excursions up to 50 km.
