In the case that snow conditions are extremely low, we may be required to run your tour on a four wheeled buggy instead of a sled. We will notify you of this before your tour time and offer to either run your tour in a buggy or reschedule to a later date when the snow conditions might be better. In the case that you are unable to reschedule your tour and unwilling to participate in a buggy tour, any payments already made will be refunded in the form of a gift voucher.
