From this thread, I've done some research and just ordered the Chaos Mistral Multi Tasker Pro.
http://www.amazon.com/Chaos-Mistral-Multi-Tasker-Balaclava-Medium/dp/B003UATJ6I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419616536&sr=8-1&keywords=chaos+mistral+multi+tasker
I have the Mistral regular balaclava, but I bought the multi tasker since it is easier to pull down from my mouth and stuff. On my old one, it is definitely warm and comfortable to wear. Sometimes a little too warm.
It's a fucking fantastic idea. Enjoy the drive, stay safe.
Do yourself a favor and buy a tow strap (I've been using https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001CF4UWG/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 with no problems on my Honda Pilot). If you do happen to get stuck, just stand by your car holding the tow strap, and someone will give you a pull.
I got you fam:

Way cheaper, but still well regarded. One modification that was recommended in the Amazon reviews is to glue a small LEGO or some other piece of plastic to the middle button so it's easier to differentiate when you're on the move.
if its sunny much at all you can get warm very quick. def go with layers that you can take off if needed. Especially if it is more of a tour and youll be spending more time on the sled itself instead of on foot.
outside of ski pants and a good winter snow/ski jacket with layers, the only thing we borrowed from the place was high boots, and helmets. clothing you should be good, but id look in to some at least knee high boots or so.
these are similar to the boots we borrowed when we went

Are you really sure you have the right mask?
Not OP, but here's a link to the most common ones. Just got a set for my Birthday and can't wait to try them out next week.
Get a 6 cylinder. If you really wanted to drive a four banger and save gas, get a civic.
I definitely plan to get into the back country sometime in the future, but I have a lot of learning to do before I'm willing to venture out to do anything serious. Colorado Snowpack is infamous for being some of the most deadly avalanche terrain on the planet. Adding a snow mobile into the equation increases avalanche risk exponentially. My best advice to you is to first invest in Avalanche Recovery gear (Beacon, Shovel, Probe). Familiarize yourself with your equipment, and practice with it regularly. Secondly, I'd advise you take at least a level 1 Avalanche Awareness Class. It can seriously be the difference between life and death. I'd really recommend giving Staying Alive In Avalanche Terrain by Bruce Tremper a read. It's incredibly informative and will be a great tool to begin familiarizing yourself with avalanche awareness and recovery before even setting foot a mountain.
Taking all of these steps to educate yourself may seem like a little bit much, but I'm not exaggerating when I say that Colorado Snow would love to kill you. Here is a story about a guy who died on New Years Day snowshoeing in the backcountry. He and his group did everything possible to avoid being caught, but despite taking steps to avoid the avalanche, and triggering his beacon, he was still killed after being buried in the slide. I can't say it enough, my man. Take the class. Read the books. You literally cannot learn enough when it comes to Avalanches and how to avoid them.
