TrueNorth Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Hello, New to sledding. Just moved up to Muskoka (Gravenhurst) and figured since I'm in the snowy north I better get a winter activity. Bought trail pass and ready to go! I've supported snowmobiling for years as I also have 100 acre hunt camp near Sundridge that D123 trail goes through my property. Thanks Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PISTON LAKE CRUISER Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Welcome to the forum Rob. You will find lots of information from lots of great people on this site.

02Sled Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Welcome to the forum Rob. Hope you'll find it fun and informative. Beware the mouse You'll soon figure it out, he is a really nice guy though truth be told. Your local club is Snowcrest. Another great group of people. They are a neighbouring club to my local club. Blake G who is on here often typically coordinates group rides from the wharf on Saturdays and is a wealth of local knowledge for the Snowcrest trails. Happy sledding. PS you have to share what you ride and pics... Almost obligatory whenever someone gets a new sled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season I bought one trail permit from Snowcrest, and chose Haliburton and Orillia for my others. I have offered modest volunteer services to Snowcrest and HCSA, and modest financial support to ODSC. I look forward to riding the OFSC system with TrueNorth and any other OC members!!

Doesn't mean you can't coordinate group rides though does it. Group rides aren't restricted to Snowcrest people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowTouringGuy Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Hello True North and welcome to the forum. Pay no attention to those that deny the Acid Mouse. I will endure. Where are you in relation to trails surrounding Gravenhhrst? I'm on D in the middle of Kahshe Lake. I'm becoming less and less involved in Snowcrest but will still be active in staking the lake. I think I bought a Snowcrest permit; others went to SnoBombers, Orillia, Parry Sound, and LucVille. Will you be a mid week rider, a weekend rider, or..........? Of course, when you are not sledding Gravenhurst has a very social curling club that would welcome you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived on North Kahshe when growing up and went to K.P Manson Public (she was the actually principal then before the name change) down at Severn Bridge. Just moved back into town (retiring in 2 1/2 years.....so still work during week) on Gateway Drive - near the wharf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
