Not sure if I'd stick 1 on a friend's vehicle or sled. Might leave it under a wiper or stuck in the window rubber.

It was on the window, and we know each other,  so it's all good. Was a good chuckle when I arrived back at the truck..

White dragon and sledjunk use to slap stickers every where too. 

I used to leave Ontario Conditions stickers in a lot of places until I ran out. There's a few groomers running around with them on the cab.

Last day on the trails & still snowing. 187 klicks. Rode west towards Opaz on TOP A & then took the L123 back to Moonbeam. @Arctic JC we turned onto the L119 (east end) around 12 noon. Hope you guys had a good ride west. The Nursery Loop was a bit of a mess lots of sled traffic & lots of snow. Caught up to the groomer on the top of the L125. Top speed wasn't as good as the other day.

 

A little snack on TOP A before heading back to Kap before loading up. Still a but blustery & Hwy 11 was wet.20210303_083205.thumb.jpg.713b515c6b24d7e950819ff7b9c068ee.jpg

Trailer in the background is a couple that arrived Tues' afternoon.

 

The following pics are on the L123

@revrnd we must have just missed you, stopped to have a bite to eat at the Top A and L123 near Moonbean right around noon...  I guess those were your tracks we saw91EA0ECF-4389-4CA4-ADA6-482C5F93DDFA.thumb.jpeg.9f124a6f3ed2fa186b925a94ce0c7f6d.jpeg

I figured we'd run to the east end of L119 maybe seeing you on the A.

Hi revrnd...just got back from Kap this afternoon. Great to meet and have a chat with you and irReverent. Thanks again for the information you gave us on all the local trails. We had a great 2 days in Hearst on the 165, 163, 115, 171, 159, 153 etc. all trails were in great shape. Friday we did almost 200 miles on those trails and only saw 1 sled!!  I can tell you that irReverent's hammer got a real workout!! Hope to meet up again with you guys again next year. Let me know when you will be sledding in my area.

Don't give him any credit for my hammer, he just works in my sales department LOL.

 

Glad you enjoyed the loops! We had an older couple @ the Moonbeam clubhouse tell us about the L trails many years ago. I found out about the Hearst loops on my 3rd trip up there in '02. I haven't ridden much in Muskoka, so that might be on the plan in the future.
