About Our Rentals & Guided Snow Adventures
Lossing's Power Sports is one of the premier Iron Range/Northern Minnesota Rental locations. Our fleet is 100% upgraded to new Can-Am Side by Sides and Ski-Doo snowmobiles for this season. We have been renting snowmobiles since 2009.
Lossing’s Power Sports sits right on some of the best snowmobile and ATV trails in the country, and we encourage you to ride right from the dealership on the Stoney Spur trail towards Isabella- where you will meet up with the Tomahawk Trail. From there, you can head towards the North Shore or back up to Ely. Heading west out of Babbitt to the Taconite Spur Trail, a turn south will bring you to Giant’s Ridge Ski Resort. North on the Taconite Spur trail creates a couple of intra-day options, including the Fishing Lakes Trails, or Vermilion State Parks Trails, which can connect you back to Ely or Lake Vermilion and Tower. We are conveniently located just outside of Ely, MN.
Trail Maps & Conditions
In addition to the paper maps you can pick up at our store, we also recommend an online map, such as BRP Go. Think Google Maps, but for the Trails. You can download in the Apple or Android App Store.

Guided Adventures
Unsure about your ability to navigate snowmobile trails on your own for your first experience? A bit nervous about the cold weather and being in the woods alone? Consider our guided snowmobile tour rather than a rental. Our guides have navigated the snowmobile trails for years in Minnesota, and will help you build the perfect day on a snowmobile. Our guides often know which trails are in the best condition for riding, and which restraunts have the tastiest food. Don't worry- you can also just ask us too. But if you aren't the adventurer that wants to bring a trail map and needs an amatuer photographer, consider booking with a guide. Guides are available for half day and full day rentals.
Other Adventures
Our Uncharted Society Rental Fleet consists of new 2023 Can-Am Side by Sides and 2024 Ski-Doo snowmobiles for next winter. Ski-Doo is the #1 selling snowmobile, globally, and Can-Am is the fastest growing SxS brand. The side by Sides comfortably seat 2 or 4 adults.
