    As far as I can remember.........................the only time I saw snowmobiles was the first Longinus mission (which isn't available until after you've talked to him the first time right after the start of the game, and when the orange capital L appears on your map (you go there to get the mission from him). There really aren't any outposts up in the snowy part of the mountains; you only go there after accepting certain missions, and at the end of the last Willis mission.

    Elephants are pretty widely scattered through out the S/SW part of the map (Noor/Paul fortresses), you won't be able to ride them and beat up Army dudes though; until you use XP to get the ride elephants perk.

    If you see any elephants riding snowmobiles...............................let me know!

    How could you not have seen any Elephants? I've played for maybe 2 hours and everywhere I go from the beginning it's Elephants, Elephants, Elephants...

    The first time I told a truck to auto drive me to a waypoint, an Elephant ran into the road and I smashed into it. It almost killed me lol

    Higher elevations

    Ok yup I found plenty of elephants in the lower valley !!! There are very few toward the east of the map . However I dont see any way into the higher elevations if there is a way does anyone know or is this included only for the missions.

    Snowmobiles only appear in the Himalayas, which are only accessible by special missions you do later in the game for Longinus and Willis. There are no outposts in the Himalayas.
