Looks like we shall have a great winter season in the north. I only hope the OFSC does not over react to covid. Really. We use to get minus 20 C in November in Kitchener area at times, when I was a kid. We would be out on sleds second or third week of November, playing in fresh snow. Now if we get a dusting and minus temps people think it is going to be a great winter. lucky if sled moves by xmas time now. Wait and see what happens! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait and see what happens! 45 years ago we had zero snow in Collingwood as well as all of Southern Ontario. No way snow coming and staying as of November was the norm. What you describe would have been a rarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually get a ride or two in November in my fields and b102 was usually rideable around Xmas to New Years most years, main trail north.. After that real good winter of 2011 to 2012 I believe everything changed. That year our trails were open 10 weeks too and it was last year 95 percent of Great Lakes frooze over. Mid 80’s had dry spells for winter too. After that been a real crap show in south. See what happens. Good for trailer sales though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
