About Us

Driftclimbers Snowmobile Club is the oldest snowmobile club in Nova Scotia, established in 1969. This season is our 50th season as a snowmobile club. It was originally located in Nine Mile River and now operates out of Wellington. Driftclimbers were the 2005 & 2007 SANS Club of the Year.

We have a family based membership of approximately 90 people. Our club works diligently with adjoining land owners ie. Barrett Lumber, Department of Natural Resources.

With the clubs four groomers we maintain 350 km.

Wellington to Beaverbank uses a small John Deere groomer

Rawdon to North of highway 14 use a New Holland 110 groomer

Kennetcook/Walton/Noel area use’s two groomers, a Large John Deer groomer and a new to us “Lady Alma” New Holland TS115 A groomer

There is no greater feeling than when you are sitting on a groomer and a group of sledders go by and give you the thumbs up or wave for a job well done, or even stop for a chat.
