Re:Leaf Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 My neighbour’s 600etec doesn’t like the trails up here. It decided to shut down on the L159, so we towed it out to Val Côté. OF7 met us at the side of the road with his truck and trailer, and we brought the sled back to Hearst. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We look forward to seeing you guys next season. Thanks Re:Leaf I still enjoy reading the post and seeing the pictures of the trails and the stories that go along with them until next winter may things be different and we can enjoy snowmobiling in Ontario again.

revrnd Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Looking for some other photos and thought the younger members might find these interesting. Did the Tour of the Line trip from the Soo (March 30/31, 2003). Waiting @ Hearst for the train to depart Train would back up west past the 'Y' & then proceed to the Soo. On the trip back saw a couple of sleds on the trail near Hawk Jct. In 2006 we did the Tracks to Trails trip Loading in the Soo Parking in the garage (my buddy's SRX) Mattice Clubhouse Opaz cluhouse. Not sure if there is anything in place to indicate the building was beside the trail or not. Bambino's/Mooseland I don't recall it looking that good when I was in to pay for fuel prior to '06. It was pretty sketchy in the restaurant part. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy's son was riding it last Sat' when I met them. Still looks great. Too bad it's gone. The day we stopped there in '06, brother & I had quite a conversation w/ the girl running the canteen about trapping. A father (trucker) & son eating lunch during the 1 stop we were there. YIKES! I've been in some 'rustic' hunting camps & they were nothing like it. Reminded me of a place a co-worker & I stopped @ for fuel on I-79 between Pittsburgh & Erie PA back in the 90s. It was a 'truck stop' that was more or less a muddy lot w/ a chipboard shack for an office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signfan Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 (edited) Can anyone tell me where I could unload and leave the truck at tomorrow in the Mattice or Hearst area.
