All hotels remain open in the grey zone read the regulations. Westway is sold out for pretty much the entire holidays. You just can't go out to eat or shop anywhere, trails are more than ok. Same as ski hills, walking trials etc. Looks like NBay and area should be open soon, plus there is a major storm hitting Wed-Fri this week up north, so things should be good. I hope everyone goes to NBay instead of Cochrane. We went last year Jan 1-3 and we had 60km of moguls from SRFalls back to Cochrane, my back and legs are still sore...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinc71 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 OFSC will likely close all trails and cease all grooming during this lockdown just like they did back in March. Especially bad at this time as Northern clubs are packing trails and flooding river crossings in preparation for the season. Hopefully this doesn’t set back trails from opening beyond the end the the lockdown, assuming it will ever end. But hey, at least we’ll get that $50 off next years permit.....

I don't think you read the fine print regarding the $50.00 rebate: For the bonus to apply, such closure would have to occur before February 16, 2021 and continue for the remainder of the season. Trails may be closed and grooming may stop but that doesn't necessarily mean that the clubs could not still flood and pack trails. jmho Edited December 21, 2020 by PISTON LAKE CRUISER 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinc71 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Yes, common sense would say continue with trail prep work however I don’t have much faith that any common sense will prevail in any of tomorrow’s government and subsequent OFSC announcements. I suspect the OFSC will prohibit clubs and their volunteers from doing any trail work during the lockdown period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OFSC can control what is done with the groomers and anything permit dollars pay for but I'm not sure they have any authority over what work club volunteers do other than they control the insurance covering the volunteers. Maybe someone here has some info. on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
