The Sno-Traveler was the first Polaris Snow Vehicle introduced in 1956. It was designed as an utility tool for hunters, loggers and rural workers. It featured rear-wheel drive via a track, dual front skis for steering and 8 to 15hp engines. These vehicles were made partly of aluminum and wood in its early versions, later evolving to more powerful structures such as the Deluxe and Comet. The Polaris Sno-Traveler was produced until 1965.
