Strong Farmer Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Hope next year the D trail can be resolved. Always one of best trails to ride gravenhurst North. Guess we all drop in port Sydney now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake G Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 I wouldn't change any plans due to this partial reroute onto a section of Lone Pine Drive. I've run Lone Pine along here dozens of times in the past, as opposed to the trail. The road is typically ice and snow covered, and not heavily sanded.

Steve F6 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 How can they say no trespassing when its the pipe line/hydro cut? Makes no sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake G Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 (edited) Private property. TCPL and Hydro have easements for their own use. Edited December 25, 2019 by Blake G 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked to mike about this at golf and ski in mattawa. He owns a section of pipeline in that area too. If riders don’t respect and stay on trail, we will loose these key trails. Thanks for heads up on pine lane drive. Never know when you encounter roads, if not familiar with area.

So many people foolishly assume that because there is a hydro line it's crown land and open to all. Farmer friend has transmission towers in his farm field where his cattle graze. Definitely private property. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve F6 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 ASC, Tall pines and HR trails were in good shape. Dwight over to Dorset was excellent, other than one nasty (2-3km) section of plowed logging just south of the ASC shelter on d101. Came back for lunch in Dwight then headed north towards highland rovers, trails were getting beat up by then plus it was snowing hard so turned around at d102/95. Nice trails for opening weekend! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went from my place across Seguin to d101b and down to dwight. Turned at that crap plowed section. Back up to d102b and to 95 and back to Seguin. All good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roofdude Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Anyone aware of ice conditions in and around the Honey Harbour area? I have checked the OFSC trail guide and weather Canada ice conditions, just looking to see if anyone in the area can comment. Thanks.

Muskoka Man Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Looks like lots of sledders have still been going down the closed part of D trail south of port Sydney .it has been tracked out heavy in the last couple weeks so I guess the land owner has increased the size of the signs for you guys that can't read English Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People just keep driving over it. I am willing to bet we won't have access ever again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
