You didn't buy your permit in Northern Ontario. You chose to support a northern club with your purchase from your home address. I don't believe the OFSC is that concerned about tracking what club you picked to suppport with your permit purchase. They are looking at the address of the permit purchaser. That tells them a lot more than what club you chose on your permit purchase.

Snow is still holding on. Ice on the river fluctuates with the warmer temps during the days. Just need to make it through the next few days, then the long term looks colder. Won't be long. Ski

100% no other experience like snowmobiling. I feel like I have done/experienced not everything, but very very close to it. Still nothing like it.   It is very very hard to get people to commit to it though.   People generally "hate" winter - and all they do is complain about it and want for it to go away.   We are a special bunch - and our #'s are falling - hence seeing what we are seeing with the trail network. 

Ya, ride the same trail in the summer and then the winter - the winter just feels and looks better, you cannot explain it, you need to experience it to get that feeling......but dollars to cents, you need to really love that winter feeling to stay in the game in this day and age .

Snowmobile puts a bigger smile on your face then all terrain vehicles do. My son already talking about going snowmobiling, he could care less about atv now.  I bought a used snowmobile too.  Lots of then out there with low miles and at good price.
