I think they said 60" width was legal. I had no problem getting by them on those wide trails. They were going around 50-60km/h. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ox Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Chum and his boy rode near Wawa this last weekend. Said that the off-trail wasn't as bad as expected. Anywhere from 18" to 4' he said. D trail south was smooth with very little traffic. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ox Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Here is the North Warm-up Shack on the D trail from Searchmont to Wawa. This is the first year that this shack has even been known to sledders for 20 years now as the trail actually misses it by 100 meters these days. But all fixed up and .. must be a sign or sumpthing to say that it is there. Chum said GAS heater! This is on the hydro, just off the Cross-Over road, aboot 30 klicks ESE of the Anjigami sub-station. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re:Leaf Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Ontario F7 and I launched from Birds Creek today, just north of Bancroft. Rode up trail 175 to Madawaska and stopped for fuel, and we ran into SKSMAN from the forum. Rode across the freshly groomed B trail into Barry’s Bay and had lunch at Balmoral Hotel. After lunch we rode down trail 157 to the lookout point. Rode over to Whitney for more gas and then back down towards Bancroft. Finished the day off with some fun on Baptiste Lake before heading back to the parking lot. It was a beautiful day for my first time riding in 2 years. Thank you OF7 for letting me ride your spare sled. 👍 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a couples days around the area I will be looking for new carbides. Trails were great But any road section is pretty bare. Parking lots in town are bare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tricky Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Congrats 1049. You two are still snowmobilers. I have a grand total of 2100 km and 7 days on my sled this year. Brutal! I may be finished for the season, but if so, I can hope to use my motorcycles more, starting a month from now in WV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Feces Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Parked the sled at cottage. 3100 km for season..so far 😀 I did not go on an overnight ride or travel from home base. Was a great winter for me. The cost of a permit is peanuts if you are able to get out and use it. Planning to get a couple day’s riding in yet in Golden BC before end of month. If I’m lucky get back for a few days of late season play before Easter. Support your local snowmobile club!! Hats off to the many volunteers in all aspects of the organization that make it work. Cheers. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-crz- Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Spent more time off the ofsc trails this year as my girls are getting older and riding their own sleds. 7 and 10 years old on Polaris Evo's. We've been able to get some decent day rides on private trails & crown land. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
