The legislature finds that snowmobiling is a major recreational sport and a major industry in this state and recognizes that among the attractions of the sport are risks, inherent and otherwise. The state has a legitimate interest in:

(1) maintaining the economic viability of the snowmobiling industry by discouraging claims based on damages resulting from risks inherent in the sport;

(2) clarifying what the inherent risks of snowmobiling are;  and

(3) establishing the duties of snowmobilers and snowmobile area operators.
