A snowmobile is mechanical, so you can cover a larger area without getting tired. Furthermore, it is a lot easier to go uphill on a snowmobile than on skies. And have you tried bringing a large load from A to B on your skies? Skies are great for downhill and fun, but if there is a job to be done, the snowmobile is the obvious choice.
What are skis made out of?
wood! not any more..... carbon fibre and plastic Early skis were manufactured from wood, with bronze, cast iron, wrought iron, stamped steel, leather, or woven rope for bindings. Later advancements on early wooden skis were strips of sharpened steel along the sides for improved control, steel bars running lengthwise along the top for stability and rigidity, and use of steam and pressure heating for shaping the tips upward. Modern skis are most commonly fiber-based resin and molded plastic, with steel, hardened plastic, or carbon fiber center sections, along with steel or carbon fiber edgings. Some high performance skis include steel or carbon fiber "tension rods" along the top for bracing and rigidity. All race skis still use a wood core, usually wrapped with glass fiber with layers of titanal. The more metal (titanal) the stiffer the ski. Bode Miller may have 4 layers in his slalom skis while other races may only use 2 layers. Recreational skis either use wood or foam (less expensive than wood) cores. Some companies use cores from other material ranging from carbon to granite. Bases are made from polyethelene. Some bases have graphite mixed in. Tops range from metal "cap" construction (like the Volants) to synthetic materials (almost all). Edges are made of hard metal. There has not been a lot of change in the materials used in recent years. Racing skis still have straight sidewalls and recreational skis have either straight sidewalls or capped construction. The shape of the skis has changed dramatically over the past ten years.

What make a snowmobile move?
A snowmobile moves primarily through its engine, which powers a drive belt connected to the track. The engine's combustion or electric power generates torque, causing the track to rotate. As the track grips the snow, it propels the snowmobile forward. Additionally, the steering mechanism allows the rider to navigate by shifting weight and turning the skis at the front.
How far can a snowmobile run on water?
A snowmobile can run on water for a short distance, typically around 50 to 100 feet, depending on the conditions and the speed at which it is traveling. The ability to ride on water is primarily due to the snowmobile's skis and track design, which can create enough lift at high speeds. However, this is not a recommended or safe practice, as snowmobiles are not designed for aquatic environments and can quickly become unstable.
