I don't think a groomer has moved in the HCSA this year. They packed with the groomer to Kinmount but haven't opened. Not sure why they have snow now? Kawartha lakes club is making them look foolish. I also heard Twin Mountains club will likely have limited trails coming tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamaha Fan Posted December 26, 2017 Author Share Posted December 26, 2017 Left TBR this morning at 8.30am. Just saw two other trailers .. they left earlier. Well the rail bed was thick with snow. Had to bust thru one part where the snow drifts were high. Yayyy for Yamaha. Fenlon Falls was really nice ... Lots of snow but no grooming. FF to Kinmount was nice running, grooming needed. Thanks to the club volunteers who made this early ride possible. Snowing heavily on the ride back and the wind made it bitterly cold. Gasoline at Ultramar was $1.10. Can't beat that. Way better than Abitibi Canyon ... lol. Got home at 12 noon for BBQ chicken, baked potatoes , macaroni and cider. Had a nice morning ride. Cheers.

02Sled Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Nice report Ty and great to see you got out. I tried to convince my wife to head north this morning since there is a bunch of yellow trail around Waubaushene. We didn't get home from my brothers' until late last night and she was wiped. Then the cold that you mentioned. She is not as tolerant of cold as she once was so her vote was a definite no way. Guess who the tie goes to. She says when it gets a bit warmer she's up for it but not just yet. Currently -14C or 7F Usually I'm good up to -20C. I am getting slightly less tolerant of the bone chilling cold and appreciate average cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to enjoy life after my wake up call. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livin' on the b103 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Kinmount to Hali is indeed closed still. 6 to 8 inches of new snow since Christmas eve South of Minden. Probably more towards the village proper. Last and only pass by the club was Dec. 18. Here's to hoping something gets done before new years.

Lots of powder that way but the OFSC has it closed. I turned back at Kinmount. The road where the shops are in Kinmount was bare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
