yamaha06 Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Looks like a colder winter for sure. As a result storms stay farther south, so the eastern part of the province gets more snow then the west for now. Niagara got close to a foot last night two. 4" on the flat here west of Kitchener. Head 35 mins north and only 2" lies on the ground. Good year to sled to turkey point. Hopefully the snow stays, another good dumping and it will be a good ride to the TP hotel!

ktmkirby Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Wish Niigata still had a trail system. Would be neat going through wine country There are ways.....just need snow. If anybody told me I would be riding a snowmobile in Niagara on December 27th, I would have laughed in his face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02Sled Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 So with all this snow coming down in particular in the Toronto area since so many believe that if they don't see snow outside there windows it isn't anywhere else either has there been an upswing in permit sales from those that said this year they would wait for the snow.

ktmkirby Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Had so much fun riding through wine country I only took one picture! Daughter had her first ride on a sled.....i should've had one of these years ago, she loved it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02Sled Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Hard to tell but do I see a couple of sleds without a permit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dweese Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Hard to tell but do I see a couple of sleds without a permit there. He did say, they where riding in wine country.. Which is Niagara area (where he does list his location), and there are no OFSC trails there, so no need for a permit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staying cold otherwise. i just looked at the 14 day trend and it doesnt call for any R nor does it show the temp going above 0 C I know alot can change in 2 weeks but it looks ok so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white dragon Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Hard to tell but do I see a couple of sleds without a permit there. don't think they are on a ''ofsc'' trail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02Sled Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 one of the sleds, blue in the back corner has the current permit. You're right. I don't know where they are. Just would be nice to see the permits and know they support the system that is out there. Can't resist the urge to encourage people to buy a permit and ride our trails I guess, The best part is to see people out enjoying the snow.

ktmkirby Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Hard to tell but do I see a couple of sleds without a permit there. We are on my friends farm and surrounding farms that we have permission to ride.....no permits needed. Dirtbike in summer, sled in winter. That being said, we all have permits, both OFSC and NY State....you can see my classic sticker on the windshield of the XTC. Some guys are still waiting for theirs in the mail. There are no OFSC trails here anyway. I don't even know where the closest one is. We ride farms, Eastside Trail along the canal, rail trails, Niagara Pkwy....nothing groomed or as pristine as the North, but it's all we got, and we may have it for only a few weeks.
