Assumption of risk of injury

A snowmobiler assumes the risks inherent in the sport of snowmobiling. A snowmobiler is responsible for: (1) Knowing the range of the snowmobiler's own ability to snowmobile any slope, trail, or area and for snowmobiling within the limits of the snowmobiler's ability considering the conditions; (2) Maintaining control of the snowmobile's speed and course at all times while snowmobiling; (3) Heeding all posted warnings; and (4) Refraining from acting in a manner that may cause or contribute to the injury of anyone. The provisions of this section do not affect a product's liability cause of action based upon the design or manufacture of snowmobile equipment products or safety equipment used incidental to the operation of a snowmobile.
