Not enough trail to warrant having one, there's a good handful of none grooming clubs, has been for decades. They handle land owners, signing, brushing and all things trail related, and grooming is done by neighbouring clubs via district grooming. Just like a 30km day of sledding used to be a decent day of riding, but now just a throttle blip. Industrial groomers have evolved and there's no need to have one for every 30 km of trail.
The new 120-150km per groomer "policy" is just absolutely absurd, and starting to really show how taxing it is on the fleet it's self as a whole, operators and the volunteers who maintain the equip.
I agree, considering that the OFSC owns these and manages the fleet (from what I understand), should be a data base that would clearly points out if a club is missing one from an assent management side of things.
But I have also learned based on some of the details shared for other club situations, there is a process, it is not a fast one, but if it is not followed, the results are not what you may be looking to achieve - not suggesting that is the issue here, but clearly this easily turns into a finger pointing exercise.
Has this not been an issue for something like 3 seasons now - late last I thought it was resolved or on paper it was, previous year it started and now this year?
How does a club not have a groomer, not just a groomer that is broken/in for repairs, but no groomer at all?!?!
