I get it - like I said, my experience is limited to what's around me and where I was riding. If I was in your shoes - my comments would likely be very different.

When your product is snowmobile trails and you have an area where you allowed it to go mismanaged for years and then shut it all down and then for years you shut out local riders because of your conditions I call that a failure.   Makes no sense to me.  Volunteers in place to do the work alongside an operating club and the OFSC threw up road blocks.

I am not on the inside or at the table - but the optics of how things were handled up top last year were horrible.   I can only speak to what was around me in plain sight, and as usual, our local club and those around it did an incredible job providing trails for us. If I never went on line or read - I would not really have known any better - it looked like business as usual and I certainly have nothing to complain about.   Hoping things are being managed better at the upper level for this upcoming season.

Well I for one will only buy one Ontario permit at this point.     The lack of leadership by the OFSC in reopening the Carden Sno Drifters trails makes me question even buying an Ontario pass at all.  Me and a pile of others.  I know of a few who are done now.   And it rests on the Leadership of the OFSC shoulders.  They top did crap all but throw up road blocks instead of doing everything to help open some close trails and help capitalize on a second great snow season.    

Appreciate it, the devil will be in the details. If the total is up - that's usually good, however they need to be up at the right price point to be truly good news, and only the OFSC have those #'s right now.   On the bold, that's a positive sign - hoping this is the same across the province - i.e. all trails have been approved to be left alone for the upcoming season.
