Re:Leaf

That belongs to 0F7. He graciously let me ride it after I sold my 2 sleds for financial reasons. That picture was taken on Lake Simcoe last winter, and OF7 is in the background on his red viper. I really enjoyed riding the srx, so I tried to order one a few weeks ago from Fenlon Falls Marina (Yamaha dealer). The very nice owner contacted me and said all sold out, but have you considered Arctic Cat. I said no, I prefer Yamaha because my friend SJ was Mr Yamaha. He said it’s the same sled, same engine, and the clutch is new and improved. So I gave him my credit card number for the deposit and he was able to secure one for me.

Power steering might be a nice upgrade??

^^^ I was thinking the same thing, boy did I start a boring snowmobile thread, but informative thread about the future of our youth. Polaris and Skidoo are definitely more popular on this forum and elsewhere.

April 19th is the release date for 2023 Arctic Cat snowmobiles. Who is putting down a deposit on a 2023, and which model?

The township is going to resurface the road in front of our farm. They want us to donate (or they’ll expropriate) some of our land. While talking to them about resurfacing our road, they mentioned a roundabout at 169 and 12.

I recently found out that a roundabout will be installed at hwy 169 and hwy 12 in Brechin. Presently the 103 snowmobile trail crosses hwy 12 and heads northeast beside hwy 169. I’m not sure how the OFSC will handle this reroute. What are your thoughts? The blue arrow indicates where the roundabout will be, and the yellow line indicates the train track location.

A light dusting of snow overnight.

Tatachikapika Lodge offers hot sit down lunch. I recommend contacting them to confirm they are open.

The long range forecast for the next 2 weeks looks decent. 👍

When I took groomer training at the Heart of Ontario snowmobile club I was told that we could get paid to groom or volunteer.

^^^Awesome pictures.

The road into Halfway Haven looks like this. This picture was taken on our 2017 trip from SSM to Halfway Haven. * I was able to take this picture because I ran out of fuel a few clicks from camp. We filled up in Goulais River but I didn’t get a complete fill, then got a little lost, and we were pushing snow. All that added up the Apex taking a time out. Thankfully Canuck saved the day. 👍

The Halfway Haven area has been getting hammered with snow. There is a long road that needs to be ploughed by the HH owners in order to keep them connected to the local towns. If they can’t keep the road cleared then they can’t get supplies ( food, fuel, and emergency supplies or services). This is my guess as to why they closed up for the season, and it’s only a guess.

I’m face book less, so I definitely appreciate TD’s efforts.

Don’t forget to post pictures from your trip for the guys at home.

ox, kawartha lakes is a municipality that has many lakes. The OPP were patrolling OFSC trails and issuing tickets trailside.

Charges: 26- improper muffler 11- speeding (one person clocked at 145km/hr) 3- chin strap 3- no trail pass

L24 will take you through town where you will find gas stations and restaurants. Mike’s (red dot on the map) is my favourite breakfast spot while staying in Timmins.

Long range weather forecast for Dubreuilville is looking good 👍

We have taken this route in the past when the ice conditions have been good. There are several places on the lake that form a pressure crack and one area in particular is Duclos Point. This lake can be very dangerous and requires extreme caution.

I wish George was my tech teacher when I was in high school. It sounds like a lot of young people benefited from taking his course, and he will be missed. RIP Mr Guppy
