    For a booking in Cochrane I was asked where I will be coming from, if it is a red zone I was told you should not be travelling , but if you do the cleaning staff will not do daily chores in your room unless you are willing to pay an extra daily fee  ($20 times two people) for cleaning and at the end of your stay. Sounded like hazard pay compensation

     

    Which hotel told you this? We booked didn’t and hear any mention of it but makes sense to me. We are not in a red zone at this point anyway but just trying to be aware of any and all possible situations.

    We have been sledding and atving with Ron And Giselle for years now ,have brought up lots of buddies up with us and they all return ,they have a great spot there and work very hard to make sure everyone is happy 

    Not only are they great people (their kids help out too), but the cabins are great, they have gas right there, a general store with a LCBO on site, and the meal plan is top notch especially the dinners. And there is a lake view.

  3. I must have missed something? When I ordered mine there was a choice to buy without insurance - it took a it longer to arrive in the mail. But it did and I just paid less (minus the admin fee) at the time of purchase. No rebate. Am I missing my rebate?

  4. I agree items like this often take time. I believe I saw that OPG posted on the base camp Facebook page under the comments  For that post saying the delay is due to OFSC. I can’t seem to find it now as I don’t have facebook... but interesting comment none the less. 

  5. The ski doo ones are 79.99$ cad with free shipping online right now and a dealer near me even had them on sale last week.

    i have ran then for a few seasons now and really like them. No Interference issues of any sort - however I turn my kill switch button down and out of the way like the mountain guys haha 

  6. Stupid question: so I have to download the new version and pay for it right for the 2019-20 season? The old version 2018-19 season still opens up and seems to update as well so you’d think there would be a message saying the old one doesn’t work anymore? Or maybe I misunderstood?

  7. I agree with the above comments. If I recall when we stayed there (~2 years ago) in the winter it was 60$/ night so pretty cheap split between 4 people. But as mentioned the washroom And shower was in the main building And only open when the restaurant was. Also was kind of awkward walking through the restaurant to shower. 
     

    but for the price can’t really beat it. And we needed it last minute. I would stay there again if needed. 

  8. I went last year to New Brunswick. Looking at going this year. Don’t know the hotels yet and sometimes you don’t know until you get there or at least closer to the time. But will be the larger ones (likely hotel universal in RDL, etc.) as there will be ~100 doing the ride. If I find out more I can post it. 

  9. I have a 5 by 10 utility trailer from the same company - it is not a dump model though. The trailers are as advertised but for sure not as good quality as a brand name like miska or Weberlane, etc. For example the axel is too far forward thus tongue weight sometimes is too light but as long as you load front heavy it’s fine. The wiring is also mediocre.

     

    Like said above the price is not too bad - a good case of you get what you pay for though. If you don’t intend to keep it for 10 years and plan light use, it likely will work for you. A bit off topic of what you asked but hopefully helps in your search.
