On the advice of a fellow OC ‘er I took a 4 hr drive from Mississauga to Témiscaming yesterday. Picked up my new 850 on Thursday and had to ride it immediately. If you are looking for amazing early season riding and don’t mind the drive ( I went up and back same day ) I highly recommend . Day pass was $65 ( I believe HF is $55 , and over 3 hrs for me to get there ) and there were ample , groomed , with lots of snow , trails. I rode from Témiscaming ( you can park at Esso ) to Latulipe, there is gas and a restaurant there. It was a total of 280 k return. I passed a total of 7 sled the whole day, 2 which were police. Btw if you go , don’t forget to attach a rear view mirror on left side of sled. I was stopped on trail and given a full inspection, they were very nice , but let me know it was law to mirror ( at least one, left side ) on machine. They gave me a warning and sent me on my way.
What a great way to start the season. LOVE the new ride!
