Dan-Senior Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 It's that time of year for those ready for early-season riding. North of Sault Ste. Marie in the mountains will soon see snow. On average, we start riding on about November 14th. We will see how close that pattern holds for this year. Last year, it was October 25th for the 1st ride. The countdown begins. I will again be running the Cross-Country 440's this year, a legendary tradition that I hold for the past few decades. Wishing everyone a safe 2021-22 season. Keep in touch. Dan-Senior Sault Ste.

Dan-Senior Posted November 22, 2021 Author Share Posted November 22, 2021 Sault Ste. Marie Blizzard Report For my out-of-town friends, I want to keep you in the loop. We are in the middle of a full 24 hour storm here in Sault Ste. Marie and when all said and done by tonight, there should be at 20cms (8" on the ground). (Photo attached) I'm heading out tomorrow with the sled. It should be a good day of riding the mountains. If all goes well, I'll report positive news back to the group. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan-Senior Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 Hi Everyone, It's Official! Welcome to the 2021/22 Winter Season in Sault Ste. Marie. I was north of the city today in the mountains. Riding was good with 10" of snow. Like clockwork, the 3rd week of November is always mountain riding time north of city and is a tradition I enjoy year-after-year. A temporary warm-up is forecasted, however, cooler temperatures to follow. Dan-Senior Sault Ste. Marie 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan-Senior Posted December 6, 2021 Author Share Posted December 6, 2021 Snow-depth is good north of Sault Ste. Marie. On average, we were in about 16" of snow (40 cms) in the snowbelt area on Sunday. A good start to a traditional winter. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan-Senior Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 It's raining in Sault Ste. Marie today. We are not immune to the mild temperatures moving in this afternoon-overnight with a projected high of 7-8 degrees Celsius (44-46F). The good news is there's plenty of snow in the bush north of the city and this will pack nicely making for some decent bush riding. Fresh powder is on the way for Thursday afternoon as winter returns to the region 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan-Senior Posted December 18, 2021 Author Share Posted December 18, 2021 Sault Ste. Marie - Updates I added the Rear-View Camera, the Power Supply and the AC-DC Converter today. Instead of twisting backwards to look who is behind or using a hand mirror, the Tablet will work. Chad and I are going to run the mountains north of the City tomorrow and see how the new addition works. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
