PISTON LAKE CRUISER Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Still snowing here. Hard to tell how much we got as it is blowing into corners and drifts. Looks like very little has stayed on the trail at our place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Yep, coming down good right now....if this pace keeps ups, it will be more than 10cm though. Heading North, so that is good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1049 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 About 5 cm down here in the south heading to Seaforth tomorrow hopefully they get decent amount of new snow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Slowed down a lot.....about 5cm fell pretty quick here in the Landing. System is over half by me, so 10cm is not likely. But the plows were sure to already get out and get those roads cleared.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you! You would think Toronto was Houston or Atlanta... Back in the 70s 1 of my father's co-workers had to go down to Atlanta to a plant there. It happened to snow while he was there. Driving down a freeway he passed a DOT pickup w/ a guy in the back shovelling sand over the tailgate. Well with all the negativity around winter in recent years, any snow is horrible. Just started snowing here, with 13" on the stick right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo Tim Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 This is bonus snow as this storm was predicted to stay south of us, so I will take every cm.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) I was wrong, snow is still falling, even picked up a bit and looks like the storm system has stalled somewhat.......10cm might not be far off what has fallen now. Will be good for Simcoe seeing as it was getting very thin on snow coverage. Edited January 26, 2021 by stoney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like they did get a decent amount of new snow as they said groomer’s were heading out this aft. I thought conditions were much better from Teeswater and up. Enjoy the ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprising we got 4". The forecasts I was hearing was that areas further away from the lakeshore wouldn't get as much. We're up to 17" now.

revrnd Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 After a couple of things I saw today, does anyone here know someone that has bought a sled for the 1st time? If yes, could you please tell them to stay to the right. If I had been a couple of seconds entering a corner I would've hit an oncoming sled head on. The opposing sleds had a right hand slightly off camber turn w/ a bit of a hump. The lead rider was on my side of the trail as I approached the curve. Then a few minutes later @ the Nephton/Stoney turnoff, I met 2 more sleds & the 2nd sled was struggling to maneuver thru a bypass (water on trail) that wasn't really a problem. Later up the trail I could see where the 2nd sled's tracks came up the middle of the trail as it came over the top of a hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revrnd Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 I was out for some exercise today doing what I call the Jack's Lake Loop. SLSR trails #747, 706 & a short section of 702 and E107 Near the 706 and 747 intersection at Lasswade. Heading south to the Nephton parking lot (plowed) Stopped at 'The Plantation' south of Little Jack's Lake. E107 to the right and 708 behind my sled. 72 klicks for the afternoon. Saw a fisher run across E107 on the forest access road portion west of Jack's Lake. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
