    Too much negativity here. End of February is going to be great. Keep the faith.
  3. No need for a permit on the lake. You do need everything else though (proof of insurance, ownership, drivers license, up to date val tag, etc.) I'd avoid the stake line. It's a grey area if you meet the cops. Not likely to get fined for permits on it, but always a chance (whether the cop is right or not). Cross it at 90 degrees and there shouldn't be anything to argue over.
  4. Lets go one step further. It's a combine traveling up the road turning left. He's probably running up the shoulder due to his width. But he's not stopped and is traveling the road. Not saying I'm right. But it makes for an interesting argument. If it were a motorcycle how is it interpreted? Too many drivers these days don't slow down when overtaking smaller and / or slower vehicles. Glad no one was hurt. Definitely take your time and look behind you before crossing or turning left on a road.
  5. The sleds were traveling the roadway. Then turned left. They weren't crossing from ditch to ditch. If it were a car turning left instead of a sled and the truck hit the car the truck would be at fault. Albeit the snowmobile didn't signal his intentions which does move fault to the sled some. What if it were a bike instead of a sled?
  6. Who's at fault here if there had of been a wreck? Obviously the sledder looses, but they were in the lead.
  7. Most unfriendly snowmobile town there is. Head further north to Fenelon Falls.
  8. Cabin in the woods in Redbridge if its big enough. You can book on airbnb or direct. Avoids all the less than stellar trails near town. I hope you dont book my dates up on me. :). https://cabininthewoods.online/ I saw another air bnb in the same area posted on NB clubs facebook page. https://www.airbnb.ca/rooms/37060147?guests=1&adults=1&viralityEntryPoint=1&s=76&unique_share_id=dfa1b8b3-3594-496d-8d2a-5e26abc412af&fbclid=IwAR1xYgs7HNHV5rrmaxSG5x-BLuQA-CCF5rHqDm-GQLaU_5EqZAFzOyGyIF8&source_impression_id=p3_1705594667_pQ7t4ARkxjch2JUW Last option is Camp Conewango. https://campconewango.com/pricing/#snowmobile 10 is a big group. Have a great trip!!!
  9. Back to back nights? Or first and last of your trip?

    There is in areas where clubs have groomed and driven it into the ground.
  11. Lol Exactly what I was going to ask. How much snows on the ground and is it groomed? Will definitely put the area on my ride list for this winter. Great post.
  12. Wonder who came up with that number. No doubt they've been busy. But 15,000 sleds in one day? You're talking 15% of the permitted sleds in Quebec. Doesn't seem right.

    Well, that's a start. Thanks for the update. Anyone in North Bay or Sudbury? How about Stonecliffe?

    Snowcams look whitearound Bancroft. Anyone have any first hand observations? https://www.meteoblue.com/en/weather/webcams/bancroft_canada_5892510 Green grass in Peterborough. No real surprise there.

    Take the snow. Clubs need to pack the crap out of it. Build the trail. Days of a month of 20 below before the big snow hits are gone. Yes there is still some swamps, but a good portion of the trail systems are on solid ground.

    I'll still take it. Right now, we have everything to gain and quite literally nothing to loose. There will be a snow line somewhere and north of it trails will opening. This storm is hitting a large portion of Ontario and Quebec. Never count your chickens before they hatch, but this is better than what we've had the past month if the forecast is even 50% correct.

    Not where it matters in cottage country and north.
  18. http://www.quebecrider.com/forums/index.php?/topic/15319-not-impressed/ Gives you an idea of conditions south of mont valin.
  19. If the storm next Tuesday pans out hopefully it will provide more options for everyone. I'd never discourage folks from riding, but yeah it will be beat in short order on the weekends.
  20. If you decide to go I highly recommend going mid week. Will get much better trails. Expect the weekends to be very busy.

  22. Km 31. Right at the top of the mountain.
  23. Entire east coast was wiped out by that last storm.2 weeks ago. Was double digits and 40 mm of rain. I'm sure they will recover shortly though.
  24. That makes sense. He can push back on the manufacturers for rebates on non current new inventory. Used he's on his own. I'm sure this will pass. Sport isn't doomed and was / is due for a correction. Many of us predicted a year ago that this was going to happen.
