Some gear is obvious: beacon, probe, shovel. But it’s the lesser-known items that often make the biggest difference in your day.
If you’ve ever frozen your fingers digging for a snack, or wished you could chow down on something hot in the middle of a long ride—this one’s for you.
Here are 5 pieces of backcountry snowmobile gear that fly under the radar... until you try them.
1. TREYL Hot Pot – Snowmobile Exhaust Cooker
You don’t realize how valuable a hot meal is until you’ve had one at 10,000 feet in sub-zero wind.
The TREYL Hot Pot mounts to your sled’s exhaust and turns engine heat into a backcountry food heater. Toss in a burrito, mac & cheese, or sausage and ride. 30-60 minutes later—you’re eating like a king.
No extra fuel. No stoves. Just trail-side goodness. And yes, it blows the Muffpot out of the snow.
2. TREYL Snowmobile Ski Pull Strap – Get Unstuck Faster
This little tool might be the most overlooked life-saver in your tunnel bag. The TREYL Snowmobile Ski Pull Strap gives your buddy something solid to grab when your sled is buried, stuck sideways, or wedged in a tree well.
Built tough with oversized handles and rugged stitching, it's designed for brutal conditions—and it’ll save your back more than once this season.
3. Compact First Aid Kit (with a Trauma Add-on)
You never plan to get hurt—but if you ride long enough, someone in your crew will. A mini first aid kit with compression bandage, SAM splint, and ibuprofen can go a long way. Bonus points if it fits in your tunnel bag.
4. TREYL Power Blaze – 3-in-1 Backcountry Power Bank
Dead radios. Dead GoPros. Dead phones. Nothing kills a ride like losing power in the middle of nowhere. That’s why the TREYL Power Blaze is a beast.
This 3-in-1 device charges your phone, powers your heated gear, and doubles as a high-lumen flashlight. Rugged, compact, and USB-C ready—it’s built for sledders who ride hard and stay out long.
5. Garmin inReach or Satellite Messenger
Most backcountry zones don’t have cell service. A Garmin inReach or similar device gives you peace of mind—and a way to call for help if things go sideways. It's saved more than a few lives.
Ride Smarter, Not Just Harder
Anyone can buy the flashiest gear. But when things go wrong—or you just want your ride to be a little more enjoyable—it’s the small stuff that makes a big impact.
And when it comes to comfort and morale on long rides, the TREYL Hot Pot, Ski Pull Strap, and Power Blaze are in a league of their own.
Try them once, and you’ll never ride without them again.
