Paige and I really missing all the QC Members this season!  Saw 65°F here at the bottom of Michigan the past few days. 

 

So happy you all have seen the weather change up there and can have a great experience.  (A bit jealous)  Be Safe!

Any fellow OC’rs going to be at cochrane thrift lodge south this weekend and riding a 2021 Polaris matryk platform ?

im in need of some measurements to see if an assault will fit or not in my trailer.

Length it will fit if the hood /windshield allows sled to go all the way to the front.

 

my XS chassis can go all the way, but G4 (with more forward cockpit and higher stance) wont allow to park all the way in as windshield profile starts to hit.

Easy to pull windshield off or get adjustable one!

Agreed - but I think even with G4 hood being so far forward I think it would hit next before skis hit front (if I removed the medium shield)

Hoping Polaris is not the same.

Just rode from Cochrane to Kap, good ride all the way. Left Cochrane this morning in a whiteout, cleared up a bit by smoth rock. Passed the Cochrane groomer that was  heading to the canyon, Smooth Rock was grooming East to Greenwater. OPP had Hwy 11 closed at Smooth Rock when we went through at noon, trucks backed up as far as you could see.

Is your trailer a 10 foot triton? If so no an assault won't fit......just brought one for JR and its too long

Tc11, 127” deck with couple extra inches for ski tips at front.

Should “fit” if clearance for body/windshield

Yep.... 650 Vr1 137” and either an 850 assault or 850 XCR 136” (if assault can’t fit in trailer....)

Nice choices. Hope you can get an assault in your future. Me on the other hand will just keep my switchback with 15k on it.

Yeah just booked rooms on way up 2 hrs ago as we changed plans last minute. If I spoke French maybe we could have figure out how the trails were in QC but couldn’t figure it out. Next time. 
 

So we booked cochrane westward today. Back to the rooms; we got in tonight at the westway (was fully booked yesterday when I checked so someone  must have cancelled). Then got in Hearst Super 8 and kap Super 8 other nights no problem. 
 

if you can’t get in cochrane try the moose in smooth rock. Or even the train station hotel in cochrane usually has stuff. Or floods landing just outside of cochrane. 
 

good luck!

Absolutely spectacular day of riding. Enjoying cocktails now at the Super 8 in Hearst.  This is the busiest I've seen the Super 8 and Companion EVER. Absolutely packed with Sleds. Was very nice to meet OC member 1049 and his wife this am in Kap. And thanks to you 1049 for the parking arrangements tonight. :right_on:. Lots of OC members here tonight.  Some photos to share..First picture is Us and @Evil and company getting ready to hit the trails..
