2026 Snowmobile Ice Drags

Photo by Paige Sutter/The Daily Standard

Boogity, boogity, boogity let's go racing, boys! Thanks to freezing temperatures, Grand Lake was covered in ice 10-12 inches thick Sunday afternoon, optimal conditions for the 2026 Snowmobile Ice Drags, presented by Bayview Sun and Snow. Hundreds flocked to Bayview Sun and Snow's marina Sunday to watch over 100 snowmobilers race down a 500-foot drag strip. Spectators cheered, threw snowballs and even golfed on an icy Grand Lake.
