  • Patent number: 6969076
    Abstract: A steerable snow scooter including a bi-laterally pivotable independent forward portion, a hand-operable direction controller, and an independent rearward portion in secured communication with the forward portion and having a support surface upon which to stand. Preferably, the forward portion of the snow scooter is angularly adjustable for selecting approach pitch, while the rearward portion includes a brake member. A preferable direction controller is a stem with a handle bar set for grasping and turning by hand. Most preferably, the stem is in axially pivotally attached communication with the forward portion for selectively moving the stem between a generally vertical and a generally horizontal orientation to thereby permit folding upon the snow scooter for easy carrying and transport. The steerable snow scooter so defined permits the user thereof to easily ride and maneuver over a snow surface for an enjoyable experience.
