Students had to battle ice, wind gusts greater than 50 miles per hour and single digit temperatures at this year’s Clean Snowmobile Challenge hosted by Michigan Technological University.
Despite the challenges, the teams—hailing from many northern US and Canadian universities—overcame the wintery conditions.
Michigan Tech won first place in the zero emissions category, and École De Technologie Supérieure won the diesel utility class and tied with the University of Wisconsin–Madison in the internal combustion class.
