  1. Rain here in Pte au Baril.just went below freezing
  2. 3" in Pte au Baril----in the last 1hr1/2,Still snowing.
  3. They have groomed X country tails,packed snowshoe trails and plowed walking trails
  4. I would like to know if all the trails are closed for all of the users as well? Should be in my opinion.It seems GRCA doesn't have winter insurance for the other groups.
  5. I need some of the above and a cover,but 21/2 hr drive one way.
  6. Do they still make Export?,and the big guy prefers the salted variety. Merry Christmas.
  7. Actually there is shortage of Marinas in Ontario.The ones that are closing are due to external pressures that are mostly caused by regulations from the various governments.Try to find a slip in some parts of the province and you'll find yourself on a waiting list.Your antidotal evidence of boats traveling might be correct,fuel prices and peoples time has limited the scope in which they travel.The 3 major dock builders in my area are always busy as are the people that build storage sheds.No decline here.
  8. 4sp vs 6sp but 4.8 do ok down hill empty. haha
  9. I was through the Midland area yesterday,Not town proper.Most trails were being well used. The section of trail 02 is speaking of I suspect they will lose the in the coming years. It is really close to new developments It only takes 1 person with determination and time on there hands to shut it down.It hapn'd just east of there in Waubaushene a number of years ago..Funny they ran diesel trains through there with horns a blaring not too long ago.
  10. We used to come down from Minden area.Lucky if we made it back before dark. Got better over the years and cheated on Salarno,Miss,Catch.5 points was great back in the day.Even climbed the tower on Greens mountain,when it was still there.You ever make it up the hill across from trappers?
  11. If you look at the Mercury Marine outboard plant in China vs the one in Wisconsin,Full of Meth heads.It just shows the sad state of some of the North American manufacturing facility's.
  12. if you are harassing your self that's your business.
  13. Long term is a key, A lot of the volunteers were born before most of the present bureaucracy was out of diapers. You got trained in a safety and controlled environment. I think you are aware of the basic health and safety aspects of what you do.Did you have a H&S meeting with yourself before you went to the shop?Did you put pylons on your driveway before pulling out on 28,you know you are not allowed to turn left,you must go to designated turn around and come back. Where is the air recovery system for when your welding? Do you have welding gases on site? where is your TSSA cert for that.Burn those hats and anything that says your a business.I hope your shop does n' have a washroom Then you involve the.your local health dept. Keep it low key and try not to advertise Once one of the enforcer of the regs get a hold of you ,you are in for it.It will not matter if you tell all of them it's just a hobby. Just my loonys worth. Oh and thank you for the work U do on the trails over your way--cheers
  14. No the president has retired from the position He wasn't 'sent" out he was the. coordinator and had years of experience.Unfortunate circumstances.-35 that night didn't help.
  15. It was not a pleasant experience for all those involved.
  16. Putting anything that is a hazard is ultimate grounds for a lawsuit,even on your OWN property.Snow fence and caution tape not so much.Unfortunately it doesn't work,nor do gates or properly signed barriers.Several high powered ATV/SXS can move one of those concrete barriers.
  17. You are pissing up the wrong tree/fence.He has done nothing wrong. Do you think a groomer is going to head out on that trail before somebody has run it.Seen many of pictures of Dennis with a chainsaw in tow.Your belittling of a volunteer should doesn't help.
  18. -23.8 C in Pte au Baril right now. I got to help a guy move in Britt tomorrow morning,that coffee better have some good creamer in it.
  19. How are they to groom D111, C108D with the lakes they cross?
  20. Border Dill S.A --Sudbury just announced the C trail will be closed this year from Estaire,Wanup north to Coniston. Guess what--private CP rail crossing. I wonder how many are all across the province?
  21. A member of the board in D10 was charged with an offense under the OHSA in 2007,08? Yes it was personal.
  22. On twin tracked Ski-Doo race sleds they had a clutch/ brake system that would release the inside track for turning left.Don't you think a modification like thatwould have served the Alpine well. lol
  23. That is why STP.PSSD,MSR. HCSA have worked fairly well aver the last 10-15 years.Running operations through the district is second nature to us.
  24. I know,but that what I was told today,crap they don't even paint new bridges today One of the first one was out Cortice way,let it corrode to a certain point,then it stops,no paint to hold the moisture in is the theory I guess.
  25. Well I started dragging bed springs around in Haliburton in the mid 70's and I'm still at it.So no need to waste bandwidth on the very long list Cheers to all you Young guys taking up are cause.
