Noticed a younger kid having a blast running the ditch in between n/b and s/b lanes around Port Sydney sunday night. 

I've heard that is "illegal", but what a great area and terrain for riding. Looked like fun to me.

I think they changed things a bit there too and you used to cross the highway to grab gas at I think it’s the ultramar, but can’t anymore or maybe not as easy too. 

Can’t imagine why crossing a highway might be a bad idea…lol. 
Used to also see many sleds cross 11 in Orillia too.

Yeah, they closed the pass through to vehicles. The trail does not cross there, you go under the highway a little further north.

 

The area in between for general off trail riding is great terrain though.

that might be the future if the trails struggle - just buy a crossover and ride wherever

At least the lakes will have a chance.

We have NO ice - so at least if it gets cold, we'll have a chance to make some of that

Looks like we got about 3" over night in Owen Sound. I was down country yesterday and Hanover to Neustadt looked to have pretty good snow trying to hang in.

We lost almost all our snow near Kitchener. Starting over again.

bah humbug farmer......

It seems the storms are over around here. Owen Sound has about 10" on the ground. Just in time for another 3 day warm front. 

Looks decent up till the end of the 14 day forecast but no deep freeze conditions. We need some of that Manitoba air to find it's way into Ontario.

It help areas that have deep snow. It compact it make  it bulliet  proof and it stay rest of season. Hopefully we get some cold temps in near future to help with swamps and water ways. Even Cochrane struggling with rivers, and low areas still.

Looks like Hearst has a few trails open 👍

Haliburton forest area got some pretty good snow, my daughter is riding in there today.

Hate to say it, but things are looking pretty sad for southern and alot of central Ontario. A few cold days coming up and back to plus temps and rain through the holidays and into the new year. 

Hope it's not a repeat of last year. Boats were on the Bay here in Owen Sound all winter.

It was plus 9 after a day of monsoon rain here at 11:30 last night. Could not have felt less like winter.

At home looking out the windows I see bare ground anywhere there wasnt snow piled.

I'm headed up the peninsula shortly so I'll see what any trails look like that cross the roads. As far as I know, there were trails that never seen a groomer yet

I was just thinking the same thing.    
 

Other than that little pocket of snow around Walkerton to get guys excited there really hasn’t been any amount of snow and it’s above zero every day between Christmas and NYE in Southern Ontario. 
 

Talking to guys in Quebec and they are saying they are still a long way from any trails opening as well.    Gaspe area has grass showing in several areas.
