    I did however see there is now premium fuel in Searchmont. although that will help with the situation, for looping around the Sault area. It will still be approx 160 miles to wawa via trail, and 140-150 to Chapleau. But, still good news. Ski

    Where is this fuel in Searchmont?

    Got the seat installed yesterday, seems like a good quality 2up seat. Loads of storage, actually a pretty comfy seat & a very easy install. Now we just need snow…

  3. I bought the Klim heated gloves last year and no regrets. I understands the muffs and thin gloves but muffs get in the way. That is why I went with Klim as they are awesome quality and I love the warmth even before I ever have to turn them on. I also do not find them stiff as brand new, they are less stiff than my 3 year old leather gloves.

  4. Sorry but it is an extreme sport and true athletes don't drink when  participating in a competition. I want to make it home and don't need to meet a sledder coming around a corner that is not in full control.  Save your drink or smoke till you get in to your lodging for the night.

  5. I am not going to worry about my update till this spring. Your per cent chance of having a fire, along as tank is kept full and with stabilizer and or fresh fuel is less than 16 cases over 250,000 sleds or 0.0064%. Just ride it!

  6. We were backcountry riding last week by Chapleau in -12 to -18 and one guy in our group had an Oxygen helmet and it kept fogging up. electric shield could not keep up with moisture in the helmet. Not enough ventilation to use for off trail work out riding.

    Are there elevation changes and lots of backcountry riding options out of there? Would love to hear more!

    There are elevation changes, bowls, twisting logging roads, power lines, lots of challenges. Contact Todd Broomhead at valentinefarmsbnb@gmail.com

     

    The conditions and terrain will challenge most cross over machines. Trail machines will not cut it in the back country there. The snow depth this year is averaging over 4ft with no thaw layers.

    They are great people. 

    Ross and Frenda.  Forget the sons name but have met in the past..

    Hope the best for all of them.

    Just shows what link in trail can do to affect many lives..

    We just got back from Chapleau last night. Stayed at Valentines B&B for 4 nights. Todd is the son,  and we also met the dad the one night when he came out for a visit. Great times, did a trail ride to Foleyet one day for lunch and back and the other days did back country riding on the logging roads.
