  1. I cannot express my pride in the crew that make up the South Seguin. It has been a bit of a discouraging year these folks never gave up. Last year we lost our groomer base with the sale of Alves Auto center. A committee was formed and worked tirelessly to look at options. With a very generous offer from The new owners at the Jolly Roger/Super 8 the old original groomer base was offered up. It took tireless work by the crew but they got it done in style. Bridge problems on the Seguin were the sour taste of the year. The decking on several bridges had suddenly gone to the consistency of wet corn flakes and some special person had fallen through bridge 5 in what looked like a tandem truck failing the bridge. Working with our partners Park to Park as well as the OFSC and PSSD aswell as some cash from SSSC the bridges are safe again. There will be more bridge repairs and replacements in the future. Our Tucker was extremely tired and had repeatadly failed on us last year. Thank you OFSC and PSSD for the replacement rejuvenated Tucker never in my over 30 years with the OFSC have they ever had our back like today. With repeated windstorms and an aging forest windfalls were at an all time high crews were out all fall clearing the trees and getting it done. The Drags are both old and well worn. Joe rebuilt them both professionally and well. Thank You Joe ! I have been with the South Seguin since 1991 and the HCSA for 8 years before that. I have never ever seen a better crew To the Directors ,executive groomers ,volunteers,landowners and supporters I am beyond proud of all of you. Bill Park
  2. I believe that the issue is some wanting snowmobiling to pay all costs for every free rider user
  3. D10 has one agreement and a great working relationship with the MTO
  4. looking better now after todays snowfall we should be packing trails
  5. If todays/tonights snowfall is as promised we will be packing trails!
  6. Seguin trail has no LUP problem it was sorted out . I am the vp of park to park
  7. It is aimed at maintaining output in the thinner air. Good idea
  8. issue should be settled tomorrow. SSSC will open the second mother nature allows us to . Piss on the beaurocrats
  9. With our rentals the renter is only responsible for damages that they cause. Engine failure unless they cause it would be our problem. That has never happened but I would not hold the renter responsible for a mechanical failure of any type
  10. Some of us like that smell. Welcome to the sport lots of good advice here maybe find a local that can break the trail and check the ice for you. Often a couple of bucks to the right local means a set off eyes that you trust watching your cottage. Floater suits on sale from 229.95 taxes in btw
  11. Better off just not to loan something out in my experience it often ends badly
  12. Anu is a good guy and is trying so hard he has spent more than most folks retirement savings on this restoration of the JR. I believe in his efforts.
  13. The heat being off will be the end of it
  14. New owners there things are getting better Tappattoo is great
  15. Some people prefer to believe what is convenient for them instead of researching the truth.

    permits

    We are self insured to a limit. As for the atvs those guys cannot even get along with each other. I am not saying that it will never happen but the entitlement and kingdom building that is (dis)organized atving has to stop first and atvers will have to understand that all trails are not available

    permits

    This will be the final solution to so many problems from permit enforcability to final cost as long as a solution can be found to the ever looming insurance nightmare that is not just the sport of sledding but ontario in general

    If you are not going to ride at least three times you are better off renting imho
  19. We tow a lot. Two hummin cummins no issues ever engine wise over a hundred dollars. I get better fuel economy towing a 10000 lb boat than a certain buddy of mines Yota 5.7 . Truck starts everyday no matter how cold it is gets better traction in the slippery crap because of the heavy engine and easily lasts half a million working kms and 20 years. No regrets ever. We also own two Hemis that do not tow as much love these trucks they are very good on gas tow well when needed however they have the ability to beat up your drivers license they are rockets. Too each their own your bucks your say we have it both ways no regrets. As for the def fluid mine are older and do not need it future tier 5 Diesels will not need it either I am told.
  20. Under load it is hard to believe that anything beats the diesel engines
